Scout Collects Home Welcome Kits for Formerly Homeless

Over the next five months, a nonprofit organization called Pathway Homes will be moving formerly homeless people into new homes. Life Scout Will McLauchlin needs your help rounding up cleaning items for their new homes as part of his Eagle Scout Project. He has put up an Amazon wish-list of all the items he needs for Home Welcome Kits. Here is a link to his list: https://goo.gl/uqk4Gd

How can you help?

  • Send anything you would like to buy from the Amazon wish-list. Or you can send similar items from any store.
  • Send items to: Pathway Homes C/O Will McLauchlin 2505 Red Clover Court; Reston, VA 20191.

McLauchlin and his Scout supporters will organize your gifts into Home Welcome Kits for Pathway Homes to give to its clients as they move in. For more details about Pathway Homes see www.pathwayhomes.org.

If you have any questions, you can email McLauchlin at Willmcl@yahoo.com or call him at 571-355-4068.
