The project, developed by Pasarelli, must demonstrate leadership while performing a project for the benefit of the community. A successful project is one of the final requirements needed to complete and earn the rank of Eagle Scout, the highest rank attainable in the Boy Scout program.
AWS’ Cleo Fund assists cat owners and/or cat caretakers statewide. The fund has recently expanded to include assisting outdoor cat caretakers to provide warm, safe shelter for colonies living on their property. Building shelters for the Cleo Fund to distribute to cat owners was the perfect fit for Pasarelli’s Eagle Scout project.
Pasarelli developed a plan to obtain the materials and resources needed to build the shelters and presented his proposal to Boy Scout leadership. Once approved, he successfully guided a team of 19 volunteers to help with the project. Together, his team completed eight fully-insulated, two-story outdoor cat housing structures for the Cleo Fund to distribute.
