Girl Scout Council’s HUGS campaign raises $52,000

The Monmouth Council of Girl Scouts has recently raised $52,042 through its six-week Help Us Grow Stronger! (HUGS) annual campaign. All contributions benefit local Girl Scouts in Monmouth and northern Ocean counties.

Although the Council didn’t reach its goal of $65,000, the council is still receiving donations on a daily basis. More than 50 volunteers from throughout Monmouth and Ocean counties took part in the campaign.

Interested donors may send a check payable to Monmouth Council of Girl Scouts, Attn.: Nancy Cummons, 242 Adelphia Road, Farmingdale 07727.
