Funds will be also used to expand the program to more youth, develop program offerings, and provide financial assistance to youth who can not afford the registration.
The Boy Scouts of America is one of the nation's largest and most prominent values-based youth development organizations. The BSA provides a program for young people that builds character, trains them in the responsibilities of participating citizenship, and develops personal fitness.
More than anything, the local Scouting program needs people who want to make an investment in the future of Scouting. An investment so that the next generation of young people can collect more food to donate to the local food pantry in the Scouting for Food program, more Scouts can practice good citizenship by waving the flag patriotically during the parade, Scouts can learn the importance of living a lifestyle that challenges them to be both physically and mentally fit and a generation of youth that will learn the great values that Scouting teaches.
