To celebrate our 19th anniversary this year, we at E-Patches & Crests decided to donate to our local food bank. Supporting our local food banks is essential, as it helps those in need access to one of the necessities of life: food. Everyone should have the comfort of a full belly, whether they're a child going to school, a single parent struggling to make ends meet, an unhoused person trying to get back on their feet or anyone else who finds themself having to lean on their community for support. We encourage you to support your local food banks. Help stamp out hunger by helping those struggling to feed themselves or their families as rising grocery prices force more people to depend on food banks.

World Thinking Day is a day that celebrates the global Guiding movement by celebrating international friendship and reminds us to talk about global issues that impact young girls and women. This World Thinking Day's theme is Our World, Our Thriving Future: The Environment and Global Poverty.

Poverty impacts all aspects of our lives, from the food we eat to the clothes we wear to our access to clean drinking water. This February 22nd, speak out on topics such as Global Warming and Global Poverty that impact the global community.

Our new 2024 World Thinking Day patch was designed for this year's theme. We also have many other items, including a World Thinking Day charm.
