Roderick Green turned his Eagle Scout project into shelves of food and supplies for the Royse City Animal Shelter. The Royse City Herald-Banner reported on October 6, 2026, that Green, a scout with Troop 911 of Fate and Royse City and Troop 83 of Rockwall, collected donations outside PetSmart, Petco, and Hollywood Feed in Rockwall, and at Pet Supplies Plus in Fate.
By the end he had 304 items, worth about $3,250, for animals waiting at the shelter. Green told the paper he chose the project because he loves dogs, wants to be a veterinarian, and has watched the town's growth bring more animals that need care. The supplies are meant to feed and outfit those animals while they wait for homes.
