Austin's Eagle Project

Austin decided he wanted to gather donations for Big Brother Big Sister's of Utah.  He had a used toy and clothing drive that would then be donated to their thrift store to raise money to promote the program.  He had to get approvals from the scouting district and the corporate center for Big Brother Big Sister.  He then had to design and distribute a flyer, organize a pick up night, and finally make transportation arrangements for the donation.  It was a great display of leadership and project management for him to do this all on his own (plus great friends, family and neighbors who contributed!)

 On the night of the pick up there were "teams" of boys assigned to different areas on the map and they went out to gather all the donations from the neighborhood.

 These were the friends who were around when I got the camera out.  There were also ward members and family members who helped out in so many ways.  Thanks to everyone!

 The Suburban was packed to the gills and there are still some donations here at the house to be delivered in a second run.  What a great drive...they were so happy to get so much right around the holidays.  Good job Austin!
