A township Girl Scout has completed work for her Gold Award, the highest level of Girl Scouting, with a project benefiting the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at St. Peter’s University Hospital in New Brunswick.

Heather Attanasio, who will be a senior at Franklin High School, focused her project on the needs of parents of children in the NICU. Her project provided care packages, hand-made hats, voice recorders, books (in English and Spanish), journals and pens, and for the most unexpected and heart-wrenching circumstances, hand-made burial gowns.
