Girl Scouts Become ‘Agents of Change’ by Helping Sheltered Animals

St. Hubert's in Madison receives food, toys thanks to Long Valley Scouts.

In order to become an Agent of Change, a group of local girl scouts need to go on a journey – one that would make a difference.

Troop 94096 in Washington Township did just that, completing a successful campaign to collect goods for an animal shelter in the area.

Ten members of the Troop collected toys, food, play stations and other items to donate to St. Hubert’s / Noah’s Ark in Madison after meeting with Ellen Goldberg at the facility, who explained the shelter’s policies and took the girls on a tour of the facility.
