A Scout is Thrifty: A central concept for each Scout in the BSA. With this idea in mind, each Scout is given the opportunity to raise the necessary funds to operate at the unit, District, and Council Levels.
As a District, we make this possible through a wide variety of programs such as Friends of Scouting, Popcorn sales, and support for Unit Fundraising efforts
Volunteers are so giving of their hours to the Boy Scouts; without them there would be no BSA. Wouldn't it be great if local businesses gave back to the same organizations their employees give their free time to?
Good news! Dollars for Doers IS just that! In this program, a company will donate money for volunteer hours worked by its employees in support of the Boy Scouts!
Different companies give at different amounts, but just ONE Cubmaster this year has earned almost $10,000 for Scouting in the Philadelphia area! Talk about the difference that a single person can make!
Please take a moment to look over this ONE page list of companies and if any adults that work for them volunteer their time to the Scouts, have them contact Brian at 484-654-9216 or bburkhar@colbsa.org. Additionally they can ask their company's HR representative about Dollars for Doers.
There are so many companies looking to give funds to organizations that are changing the face of local communities. Help Scouting in Philadelphia continue to grow by getting the support of our local businesses! Thank you for your support!
