Operation Cookie Drop: Helping Troops Big and Small

April 6, 2011

This March, KOMO Communities teamed up with KOMO 4, KOMO Radio, STAR 101.5, KVI 570 and The Girl Scouts of Western Washington to bring some special treats to the troops.

Operation Cookie Drop is a program that allows cookie customers to purchase Girl Scout cookies at site sales and donate them to US military personnel. Each Girl Scout troop had a donation box designated for cookie donations to the troops. Through Operation Cookie Drop, the girls learn the importance of giving back to their community and, in some small way, thank our military personnel. The same can be said for Fisher Communications.

This year, thanks to a great team effort, the official, final total for 2011 Operation Cookie Drop was 138,166 boxes!! That’s 16,681 more boxes than last year! Now that’s sweet.
