Using eye dropper to change stroke of box

Question

I don't know how else to describe this. I want to change the box stroke to the color of the logo. How do I do it? I can only change the fill of it, not the stroke.

Whenever I go to use the eye dropper tool and pick up a color from the logo, the color picked is applied to the fill and not the stroke, even if I have the stroke color selected

To ensure the color picked with the Eyedropper tool applies to the stroke and not the fill in Illustrator:

Select the object with the stroke you want to change.
Activate the Eyedropper tool from the toolbar or by pressing "I" on your keyboard.
Hold down the Shift key while clicking on the color in your logo. This action will sample the color and apply it to the stroke color, preserving the existing fill color.

By holding down the Shift key while using the Eyedropper tool, you can control whether the sampled color is applied to the stroke, fill, or both.
