East Meadow Girl Scouts Cleaning Up for a Cause

Troop 1811 has been working hard to collect wrappers that they can put to positive use.

East Meadow Girl Scout Troop 1811 has been working hard to give back to their organization.

"We have been collecting Nabisco and Keebler wrappers, along with all candy wrappers and sending them to a recyclable company called Terracycle," Debbie Iadevaio, one of the group's leaders, told Patch via email. "In turn, they donate money to the girl scouts of Nassau County council. This year we also started collecting Elmer's glue containers and sticks."

Amanda Skoros is the other leader for Troop 1811. Below is a list of all the girls who have participated in the project.
