Lowe's BSA Grant
Jack was awarded a 2012 Lowe's BSA Grant of $100 to put toward his construction-based Eagle Scout Project. In addition, the Lowe's Dulles store matched with an additional $25. The grant money was used at Lowe's to purchase Sakrete to anchor the Iron Crosses, paint and supplies for the iron gate/fence and grass seed.
Equipment Lending
