Aidan Donnelly's Eagle Scout Service Project

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Aidan Donnelly, and I am a Boy Scout in Troop 50, Los Angeles, CA.

My Scouting career began as a tiger cub in the first grade, and over the last ten years, Scouting has taught me so many things. More than anything, it has taught me the twelve points of the Scout Law, values like trustworthiness, courtesy, and kindness, that I will carry with me throughout my adult life. One thing all the points of the Scout Law point toward is helping others instead of just helping ourselves. This is why to achieve the highest rank of Eagle Scout, all scouts must plan, organize, and carry out an Eagle Service Project for the betterment of their community.

My Eagle Project will be a landscaping improvement project in front of the main administration building of the Veterans Administration in West Los Angeles, California. The VA supports our nation's veterans every day of the year, providing health care, vocational rehabilitation, education assistance, and many other badly needed services for our vets.

And yet, the grounds these vets visit are not always the most welcoming. My project will beautify the grounds around the main administration building, making it a more welcome place for veterans to come to when they need help.

In addition to cleaning up the area, we will be planting drought-resistant flowering plants to provide a welcoming, peaceful place for our vets to come. I hope you might consider helping me out on this project, by making a donation of any amount. Truly, anything you could give will go a long way toward making this project a reality. Along with the help of my troop and the community, this project will take place on July 6th and 7th, 2019 .

Completing this project is not an end to my scouting career, but a test in which I will use the skills that I have learned throughout my years of Scouting to provide leadership and guidance to my fellow scouts. Becoming an Eagle Scout will begin a new chapter in my life, one in which the values I have developed in Scouting will always guide me forward.

Thank you so much for your consideration, and your support!
