The Girl Scouts of San Jacinto have just launched a new cookie program entitled 'Cookies4Heroes,' which enables consumers to buy and donate packs of cookies to the first responders who helped during Hurricane Harvey.
Consumers interesting in taking part in the program can make a donation online through the organization's virtual cookie share program. With this method, individuals can thank the first responders and support Girl Scouts without having to take a pack of cookies home. Others interested in supporting the cause can simply inform their local door-to-door representative that they'd like to make a donation to Harvey Heroes.
This new initiate runs between January 6 to March 25, 2018 and highlights the continued efforts to raise money for and support those affected by Hurricane Harvey.
