STEP UP FOR SCOUTS
Step up for Scouts is an annual direct-solicitation campaign, reaching out to Scout families, service organizations and businesses. Friends of Scouting is the council’s largest source of income
- Your Step up for Scouts donation helps provides roughly 25% of the annual funding necessary to run Scouting programs in Central Texas (remaining 75% raised through special events, popcorn sale, camping and program fees)
- We subsidize our programs by roughly $250 per Scout annually, in order to make our camps and activities as affordable as possible for as many children as possible
- Scouting does not receive partner funding from the United Way Capitol Area, state or Federal government
