Is your “spring cleaning” starting a little early this year? If you’ve got piles of clothes or toys that need a new home, Boy Scout Troop 811 has the perfect solution.

The troop is hosting a Winter Clothing Drive Fundraiser in partnership with Julimen Inc., and they need your help to make it a success. Whether it’s those shoes the kids outgrew or textiles taking up space in the linen closet, your donations go directly toward supporting troop activities, service projects, and community leadership events.
