2009 Scouting for Food Information

Submitted by Devon.Hubner on Sat, 10/31/2009 - 10:43

Scouting for Food is one of the most important things we do as Scouts. There is a greater need than ever before, and many organizations have communicated that without the Scouting for Food donations they would be forced to close down.

In Scouting for Food, each unit distributes door hangers to homes. The door hangers include instructions to fill a bag with non-perishable food goods and place that bag on the door.

  • Please distribute the bags before November 15th.
  • Please retrieve the bags on November 21st.

 

Please fill out our electronic signup form so that we know how many door hangers you need and which community organization you will be delivering food to:

You may deliver food to any organization you wish. If the organization is not on our list, please let us know the organization details. Our list of organizations is:
