BUILD SOMETHING THAT LASTS
The James E. West Fellowship
Some gifts make today’s adventure possible.
Others help ensure the adventure never ends.
The James E. West Fellowship recognizes individuals and organizations that make qualifying gifts to the Great Alaska Council’s permanent endowment.
These gifts aren’t simply contributions for today. They become part of a lasting financial foundation designed to strengthen Scouting for generations to come.
Your Gift. Their Future
An endowment is built with a long view.
Rather than supporting only today’s needs, endowment gifts are invested to help provide ongoing resources for the future.
A strong endowment helps give the Great Alaska Council greater stability, resilience and the ability to continue delivering Scouting regardless of the challenges the future may bring.
You can help build that future.
A Lasting Recognition
The James E. West Fellowship recognizes qualifying endowment gifts beginning at $1,000.
A Fellowship may be established in your own name or given in honor or memory of someone whose life reflects the values of Scouting.
It can recognize:
A Scout who made you proud.
A volunteer who gave decades of service.
A parent or grandparent who introduced you to Scouting.
A mentor who changed your life.
Or someone whose legacy deserves to continue through opportunities created for young people.
Their name becomes part of Scouting’s future.
Help Build Scouting's Permanent Foundation
The Scouts we serve decades from now will never meet most of the people who built the foundation beneath them.
But they will benefit from what those people chose to leave behind.
A James E. West Fellowship is an opportunity to become one of those people.
Build something that lasts.
