A Foster Girl Scout waits in line to fill up a backpack with donations - CAMP FOSTER, OKINAWA, Japan – A Foster Girl Scout waits in line to fill up a backpack with donations Nov. 3 aboard Camp Foster, Okinawa, Japan. The Foster Girl Scouts are participating in the Girl Scout’s Global Action project, “Increasing Girls’ Access to Education.” The Girl Scouts filled backpacks to be handed out to kindergarteners in Thailand during Operation Cobra Gold. The Foster Girl Scouts made an assembly line with help from Marine volunteers and parents filling gently used backpacks with items such as: notebooks, a stuffed animal from home, and crayons.
