Kildare scouts donate Easter Eggs to nursing homes, hospital, during Covid-19 lockdown
Generosity!
Scouts from the 4th Kildare Town Scout Group have shown they are as generous as the Easter bunny over the last two days.
The youngsters decided to donate their cache of 220 chocolate Easter eggs to local nursing homes and to the children's ward at Portlaoise Hospital. They could not be distributed to the troupe due to coronavirus restrictions.
The members donated the goodies to Ashley Lodge, Lourdesville and Beechpark Nursing Homes in Kildare town and to the hospital, along with greeting cards.
"The chocolate eggs were originally meant for our 200+ youth members in our Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and Ventures sections," said Wayne Fitzgerald, deputy group leader.
