Mission Peak District 2023 Friends of Scouting Support

Please consider donating today!

Help Close the Gap

We’re still $20,000 short of our goal. Support the scouts in our district and ensure the continuation of the programs and camps your family loves.
  
     Understanding Friends of Scouting – Isn’t the Annual Council Annual Fee Enough?
The straightforward answer: No.
The annual fees, while essential, don’t cover everything. They’re not enough to maintain our programs, provide financial support to underprivileged youth, keep our camps running, manage insurance costs, and, crucially, compensate our dedicated staff. The true expense of offering these services amounts to approximately $300 per youth, a figure that exceeds the $68 Council annual fee. Your contribution to the 2023 Friends of Scouting is what helps bridge this gap.
 
Supporting the Mission Peak District Goal
This year, our target for the Mission Peak District is to raise $55,000 through the Friends of Scouting donations. Here’s how you can contribute:
  • Donate Here: Every dollar plays a part. Consider making a recurring donation – $5, $10, $20, or even $100 per month. Whatever works with your budget is deeply appreciated.
  • Unit Base Donations: Offer your support during “Ask Events” within your Packs, Troops, or Ships. If there’s no scheduled event, Brian Putt is available to assist.
  • Spread the Word: Do you know people passionate about scouting? Share, or a snapshot of the QR code below to introduce them to the Mission Peak Friends of Scouting.
  • Matching Donations: Does your employer match your charitable contributions? Let us know! And if you’re awaiting a Donation Confirmation letter from the Council, reach out to Fernanda Ruiz
  • Engage the Business Community: Do you know small businesses or civic organizations that would financially support our district? Are you a business owner or have a say in charities donations? Contact Brian Putt or Fernanda Ruiz
