FRIENDS OF SCOUTING
Invest In Scouting Today
Every great Scouting experience starts with someone willing to make it possible.
Friends of Scouting is the Great Alaska Council’s annual giving campaign. These unrestricted gifts provide the resources needed to support Scouting across Alaska—from the programs and camps our Scouts experience to the volunteers and local units that make Scouting happen in our communities.
Your gift goes where Scouting needs it most.
Your Gift Builds Stronger Scouting
Registration fees alone do not cover the full cost of delivering Scouting.
Friends of Scouting helps close that gap.
Your support helps provide the foundation behind every local pack, troop, crew and ship, including:
Programs & Outdoor Adventure
Experiences that challenge young people and help them grow.
Volunteer Support
Training, tools and resources for the volunteers who make Scouting possible.
Camps & Facilities
Places where Scouts learn, explore and create memories that last a lifetime.
Access to Scouting
Resources that help us reach and serve young people throughout Alaska.
Council Operations
The infrastructure necessary to support safe, sustainable Scouting across an enormous geographic area.
Choose Your Level of Impact
Every Friends of Scouting gift matters.
Whether you make your first gift today, become a monthly supporter, or make a leadership-level investment, you become part of a community committed to keeping Scouting strong.
