Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, I will be unable to hold a traditional Court of Honor. While this is disappointing to me and my parents, it is a small sacrifice to be made in the interest of public health. 

I intend to use this as an opportunity to serve our local community. The Eagle Charge calls me to: "Be among those who dedicate their skills and ability to the common good, and build America on the solid foundations of unselfish citizenship." My first action as an Eagle scout will be to turn this unfortunate situation into an opportunity to help our local community.  

My family will donate the funds we would have spent on a Court of Honor to the Chester County Food Bank, which is meaningful to me since I have volunteered there in the past. This go fund me is an opportunity for others to contribute as well.
