Scouting for Food

Scouting for Food is more than the largest Scouting service project in Southeast Georgia. It is the single largest food drive as well. Because of the work of the leaders and Scouts, Scouting for Food will provide more than 35,000 pounds of food for needy citizens of our community during the winter months.
For some food pantries, Scouting for Food is their primary source of food. Without Scouting for Food, people will go hungry! I ask that your unit promote 100% participation in Scouting for Food. Packs and Troops will distribute Scouting for Food bags on February 6th to each home in their designated territory.
Because of our Council’s growth, your unit may be asked to cover an area other than your traditional area. Remember, the object of Scouting for Food is to cover as much area as possible.
Each Pack and Troop will return on February 12th to collect the bags full of food and deliver them to one of the many collection sites throughout the Council. If you would like to participate in our 2011 Scouting for Food campaign, please click here .
