Secaucus Cub Scout Collecting Items For Town Animal Shelter And Jersey City Animal Shelter

SECAUCUS, NJ — Secaucus Cub Scouts must do a service project to graduate, and this Cub Scout, Kyle Stradford III, is collecting items for the Secaucus Animal Shelter.

Update, April 2: The Secaucus Animal Shelter doesn't need anymore blankets or towels. They have new wish list items; see this list: amazon.com/registries/gl/guest-view/OWSHWXLL2J3J?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_ggr-subnav-share_KQ4EEKRYE8RJJSBFXMPT&language=en-US

The public is asked to drop off the donations at the following locations in Secaucus. At all these locations, you will see boxes with the Cub Scout flyer on them; it has a picture of Kyle and says his service project:

Rec Center, 1200 Koelle Blvd
Secaucus Library, 1379 Paterson Plank Rd
Town Hall, 1203 Paterson Plank Rd
Mike Gonnelli Senior Center, 101 Centre Ave

The boxes will be up at those above locations until May 1.

Kyle, who is 10 and in the fifth grade at Huber Street Elementary, also has to present his service project to his Cub Scout pack. He is currently in Arrow of Light rank in the Cub Scouts. He must complete this in order to graduate Cub Scouts in June.

Kyle also asks the public to make donations, if they choose, to the Jersey City Animal Shelter. See above for what they need. You can donate to the Jersey City Animal Shelter via this Amazon registry he created: amazon.com/registries/gl/guest-view/SRC6ZAN7MBE

He created the Amazon registry on his own. He also used Canva to create the QR code for donations. He also made the flyer. He especially wants to help the Jersey City Animal Shelter because they will give people food if they cannot afford to feed their pets, rather than surrendering their pets.
