Fulfilling a Need
On December 24th Troop 445 delivered gifts, food, basic needs, and a Christmas Dinner to a very deserving family in Waipahu.  Anne Rice shared that the older sister is only 29 and has gained custody of her siblings, ages 10-19, from their abusive parents.  Catholic Charities facilitated the meeting and delivery to the family.  “We were able to meet one of the boys and he helped with the pickup – you should have seen his eyes when I opened the back of my car and had to catch a gift that came out because it was so full,” shared Rice. “The girls planned the entire dinner right down to matching Christmas paper plates and the little things you always forget like butter.”  The troop was able to provide some long term needs for the family – dishes, glasses, silverware, shoes, slippers, socks, and clothes in addition to three tubs full of items of some basic needs like toilet paper and laundry detergent.


Helping at the Marathon
Girl Scouts of Honpa Hongwanji helped with the Honolulu Marathon on December 14th and were at the First Aid Station #1 and provided first aid. Troop 383 and 415 manned the water station at the Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving Day, November 27th.
