We have generous donors willing to match up to $15,000 to help us meet our goal!
Double you donation! We had a couple generous donors willing to match up to $15,000 what we raise! That means, your $1 becomes $2! Your $100 becomes $200! It costs almost $600 to support one Scout through a year of Scouting, and we don't want any Scout left behind. Please help us to reach our goal by donating today and making your donation double it's impact!
