Brownie Troop 33039 (3rd grade, Springhill Elementary School) recently took a trip to Books for the Barrios. The troop was inspired by a field trip the second grade classes attended last year and decided to hold a book and toy drive at Springhill. Before the winter break, the girls delivered and helped sort the donations at the warehouse in Concord. Their boxes will serve over 1,100 children in the Philippines. The girls are excited to work with Books for the Barrios again and would encourage others to do the same.
