Ermias is in the 4th grade and his family is from Eritrea, a small country in East Africa. He loves soccer and basketball, and even gets in some skateboarding from time to time. To connect with his home culture, he is involved in an Eritrean Dance Group based out of Seattle, a group that recently created their own Scout unit.
The dance group is a way for Ermias to meet other youth from his country, as well as socialize, have fun and learn about his heritage. Now, Ermias is able to participate in Scouting activities with his dance group, like at the outing he experienced this past summer at Camp Pigott. The climbing wall was one of his favorite activities!
Thanks to you, we will be able to provide Scouting opportunities throughout the year for Ermias. He is already looking forward to next year’s summer camp!
