Outside influences and life experiences contribute to the values and beliefs we carry with us throughout our lives. While Scouting can’t remove the obstacles in life, it teaches young people to face challenges, manage risks and overcome barriers — to grow up strong, resilient and wise. Today’s youth need Scouting and Scouting needs you. Support what counts — character.
