Boy Scouts Renovate Catholic Charities Community Center

Boy Scout Domenic Pietromonaco from Troop 544 in New Hyde Park chose the Catholic Charities Queens Community Center in Astoria as his Eagle Scout project. Domenic along with his fellow scouts renovated the Career Resource Room where computer classes and employment support groups are held. To begin, Dominic held a car wash to raise funds so he can purchase supplies. With the money earned, the Scouts installed cabinets and painted the room. He completed the room and it turned out to be a great success.

Eagle Scout is the highest rank attainable in the Boy Scout program. Requirements include earning at least 21 merit badges and demonstrating Scout Spirit through the Boy Scout Oath and Law, service, and leadership. This includes an extensive service project that the Scout plans, organizes, leads, and manages. Domenic choose Catholic Charities because he believed it was a great place that impacted the lives of people in need.  “Anything I could do to help people in need was ideal for me to include in my Eagle Scout project” said Domenic.  Thank you to Dominic and all the Scouts who helped!

Volunteer Highlight:

Everyone has a story and this week we learned a little more about Dodi. Dodi has been actively volunteering with CCBQ for about a year now and she has really helped out in the Development and Communications office. Dodi enjoys volunteering her time in the office because of the people she works with. She was born and raised in Kentucky, then moved to Brooklyn in the mid 1960’s. For education, she started off at a school in Chicago where she received her Associate’s degree. She continued her studies and graduated from St. Francis College in 2011 with a B.S. in Professional Studies.

Dodi found out about Catholic Charities Brooklyn and Queens (CCBQ) from an informational presentation about volunteering at St. Francis College, where she currently takes courses. Catholic Charities Brooklyn and Queens did an informational presentation about volunteering during one of the lectures. This immediately grabbed Dodi’s attention because she was looking for years for volunteer opportunities. Immediately Dodi ran right up to ask "When can I start?"

Dodi finds enjoyment out of volunteering here at Catholic Charities because she always feels welcomed and describes everyone as all around nice people. This location for her is also very close to home, within walking distance so it is very convenient.

One thing that she did emphasize was how easy it is to start volunteering at CCBQ. Here, the volunteer specialist, Leslie Thomas, is able to connect the individual to a site, based on the volunteer’s interests and the distance from their home.
