Girl Scout Cookies Sent To Area Veterans

Presented By Classic Brands

Watch our interview with Bobbi Jo Hoffman and Jamie Russell

The annual sale of Girls Scout cookies is a treat for many of us, and veterans of the U.S. military are no different.

This year, a group called Soldiers Angels helped facilitate the delivery of 9,092 cases of the cookies to the Chillicothe Veterans Affairs Medical Center.

Bobbi Jo Hoffman of Soldiers Angels says that many cases totals more than 100,000 boxes of cookies.

Jamie Russell, Voluntary Service Specialist at the Chillicothe V.A. Medical Center says the cookies are presented to the hospital’s in-patients and out-patients, along with the Veterans Service Office distributing Girl Scout cookies to veterans in the community as well.

Hoffman says this is one of the many things Soldiers Angels does to help make veterans lives “a little brighter.”

She says they need more volunteers and hopes to see more people in our area get involved.
