Ella’s passion for self-expression through watercolor painting, costume sewing, and creative projects inspired her to share her love for art and its therapeutic power with others. Building on her Bronze Award project, she sought to support hospitalized children by providing them with art materials.   Partnering with The Crayon Initiative and reaching out to the Child-Life Specialist departments at a local Arizona hospital, Ella worked to understand the specific resources needed. What started as a simple idea to host a crayon drive grew into a collaborative effort, with multiple Girl Scout troops coming together to collect supplies, write letters, and educate youth on the importance of recycling and community involvement. In its first year, Caring Through Color donated 25 lbs. of art supplies to Scottsdale Shea Medical Center and recycled 104 lbs. of used crayons. With a deep commitment to service, Ella will soon be attending the United States Air Force Academy and plans to complete an 18-month mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.  #girlscouts #girlscoutsaz #gsacpc #HighAwards #gsGoldAward (fb)
