The Girl Scouts delivered collection bags last weekend. I saw several flying through the neighborhood, so I imagine mine was gone with the wind. You can use any bag to put out goodies for the girl scouts to pick up.
It's time to look through the stockpile to see what you can donate. Needed items include soap, shampoo, deodorant, toilet paper, facial tissue, toothpaste, toothbrushes, mouthwash, feminine hygiene products, disposable diapers, baby wipes and first aid supplies.
Those who miss the April 16 collection day or wish to contribute additional items may deliver these to any Dierbergs Market in Missouri April 14-May 7.

Jeri - Thanks for the info on Dierbergs as a collection site. I'll take mine there.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info on Dierbergs...Last year the Girls never came back for the bag.
ReplyDeleteMy Schnucks also had donation bins.
ReplyDeleteThere should be donation bin s at various Dierbergs and Schnucks throughout the metro area. You can also drop items at the GS Service Center/regional headquarters on Page near Lindberg.
ReplyDeleteHi All - Thanks for the additional info. I better go get my bags out on the front porch.
ReplyDeleteThanks to all that donated. Our troop filled the back of my little SUV and the back of a minivan. We had one woman who said she spends $300 @ Aldi on diapers and pads, and other hygiene supplies- She donated a total of 12 full cases of products! Yeah for her! Every little bit helps.
ReplyDeleteMy troops are in at over 3500 items and counting! Thanks everyone!
ReplyDeleteWe only had 400 something pretty sad considering alot was donated from the parents. Hopefully the people who didn't donate will take advantage of the grocery store drop off spots.
ReplyDeleteHi All - I'm sure the girls had fun no matter how much or little was collected in their territory.
ReplyDeleteThe drizzle might have cut down on what people put out. Hopefully lots of people will take advantage of the Dierbergs or Schnucks drop off locations.
Apparently Schnucks was only collecting items on Sat, their bins are now gone. Hopefully Dierbergs will continue to collect items. I have 3 more bags to drop off. Thanks to the Girl Scouts and the moms who volunteer to help out every year :)
