Eagle Scout Matthew Lopata

Eagle Scout Matthew Lopata has been a Scout with Troop 245 for 10 years. This year, he decided to give back to the community by completing a project for the Greenville Ronald McDonald House.

Currently, the House has a pop tab and aluminum can fund-raising and recycling program. Tabs and cans are typically stored in various small sheds at the House and volunteers worked outside in the weather to sort. Now, thanks to Matthew, his father and grandfather for assisting with the project our Ronald McDonald House has a dedicated recycling center! This frees up much-needed storage space and enables more tabs and cans to be collected.
