"An Investment in Character"
Invest in Character…. One youth at a time!
Each year the Gulf Stream Council, Boy Scouts of America, must raise approximately $100 per Scout to stay in operation.
Membership fees go straight to the National operations of the Boy Scouts of America. A Pack, Troop, Crew, or Ship’s fundraising efforts support only that particular unit.
It is through caring "Friends of Scouting" that the Gulf Stream Council is able to fulfill its mission to bring Scouting to the seven counties here in southeastern Florida: Indian River, St Lucie, Martin, Palm Beach, Okeechobee, Glades and Hendry. With your help, Scouting affects and impacts the lives of our community’s youth.
