Thomas Wilcox at presentation by CCUSD Superintendent Dr. Josh Arnold reco gnizing his work for ͞ Backpacks For Kids ͟
Thomas Wilcox, a sophomore at Culver City High , just completed his Eagle
Project. His project, Joseph Tachiki's Backpacks for Kids, provided 80 backpacks
filled with school supplies for homeless students who enter Culver City Middle
School.
The project was named after his best friend, who was also on his way to
become an Eagle Scout, who passed away unexpectedly last September. Thomas's
goal was to raise $1300, however, due to generous donation from family and friends, he raised
over $2800 which allowed him to purchases high quality backpacks and additional school supplies.
