Eagle Project: Build Libraries and Pantry for Connected Chef
Donation protected
Hello, my name is Brendan Jay and I’m a Life Scout with Troop 65 in Astoria. I’ve been a scout for 11 years, starting with Cub Scout Pack 90.
I’m raising money for my Eagle project, which will benefit The Connected Chef in Long Island City. Connected Chef is a non-profit dedicated to providing fresh, healthy, and affordable food to the community. They also offer cooking education to children and have five locations from which they distribute food.
I spoke to them initially because I was intending to create little lending libraries in the neighborhood, and I saw theirs was in disrepair. But in speaking to them, we agreed that they need more than just a library; they have many projects that need doing. I’m creating 3 libraries for their space and a food pantry shelf unit for their storage.
Thank you!
