Girl Scouts Donate Baby Gear to Hudson Valley Hospital

Hudson Valley Hospital Center’s Maternity Department got a special delivery on June 17, but not the usual kind.

The Girl Scout Community of Bronxville delivered baby supplies to the Maternity and Neo-natal Intensive Care Unit collected at the Community of Bronxville annual Charity fundraiser on June 9. Mary Massa, Bronxville Girl Scout Community Chair, organized the event, which ended in a cowgirl themed party.
