It’s Girl Scout cookie season, but a local troop is providing a different kind of service to their community.
Right now, the troop should be in the midst of Girl Scout cookie season. Unfortunately, the pandemic has halted their selling efforts for the time being.Some of the girls were a bit disappointed, but they have other things to be excited about, said troop member Firdaws Abdurezak.
“Right now we just did exercise, then an icebreaker and then we did a painting," she said."So that's what I really like, because I really love art. So that was the most happiest part about it.”Beyond having fun, the troop teaches the young girls how to become leaders of tomorrow, while breaking down stereotypes.
“We’ll read about women in Islam. The key roles that they had; that women are looked at equal to men,” Shiferaw said. “Uplifting and empowering them just so that they know their religion is not something they should be ashamed of, but something they should be proud of.”
