DAY OF SERVICE

This Giving Tuesday, Make a Difference That Lasts!

Every young person deserves the opportunity to experience the adventure of Scouting. From camping and outdoor adventures to leadership development, STEM activities, and community service, Scouting helps youth build confidence, discover new interests, and develop skills that will last a lifetime.

Your generosity helps the High Desert Council provide these opportunities to youth throughout our communities. Donations support camperships, program supplies, training, and activities that make Scouting possible for more families.

Whether it's a little or a lot, every gift makes a difference.

Give today. Invest in tomorrow's leaders. Help us make more Scouting adventures possible!
