That DeKalb County is helping us Girl Scouts out by taking all the cookies that we have left over and taking some of them and giving them out to the people that are in need of them, it’s just a little extra spice in the boxes that all these people lined up and all these people walking here are getting. So, it’s very exciting to be here.” Kai said, “it’s just such a great opportunity for us and such a great opportunity for the community. It’s so amazing and the thought that they bought 20,000 boxes and they are giving them out to people in need who need these boxes and need all of this stuff, we love these cookies with all of our heart and it’s so great that they give them to people who maybe can’t afford them or maybe just can’t find them.” Photo by Dean Hesse.
