Community Service

Troop # 17255 cutting out shoe patterns which will be used to make shoes for kids in Uganda with the Soles for Souls organization.

Food drives have long been a favorite community service. You can also collect shoes, clothing, books and any other thing members of your community can use. Can you make these ideas sustainable? Making a drive sustainable is a great idea for an award project. Can you get a permanent drop location set up and get the word out to your community? Can you get volunteers to help man the drop spot?

You’ll find a wide variety of community service ideas here. Follow us on Facebook to find out about new community service programs and ideas as soon as they become available.
