For National Make a Difference Day Girl Scout Troop 238 joined the Fort Bend Independent School District in collecting items to donate to the Houston Marine Moms for the troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. They left fliers on houses earlier in the week and then went back and collected the items.
Houston Marine Moms is a support group for family and friends of recruits and those serving in the United States Marines. For more information, visit http://www.houstonmarinemoms.org/.
