Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Boy Scouts of America
Lion Cubs for kindergarten (or 6 year old) boys and girls with adult partners along with Tiger Cubs for first-grade (or 7-year old) boys and girls and their adult partners is a school year program that stresses shared leadership, learning about the community, and family understanding. Each youth-adult team meets for family activities, and twice a month all the teams meet for Tiger Cub den activities. Cub Scouting is a family and home-centered program that develops ethical decision-making for boys and girls in the second through fifth grades (or who are 8, 9, and 10 years old). Fourth and fifth-grade (or 10-year-old) boys and girls are called Webelos Scouts (WE'll BE LOyal Scouts) and participate in more advanced activities that begin to prepare them to become members of Scouts, BSA Troops. Cub Scouting's emphasis is on quality program at the local level, where boys and families are involved. Scouts, BSA is a program for boys and girls ages 11 through 17 designed to achieve the aims of Scouting through a vigorous outdoor program and peer group leadership with the counsel of an adult Scoutmaster. (youth may also become Scouts, BSA if they have earned the Arrow of Light Award or have completed the fifth grade.) Venturing is a program for young men and women who are 14 (and have completed the eighth grade) through 20 years of age to provide positive experiences through exciting and meaningful activities that help youth pursue their special interests, grow, develop leadership skills, and become good citizens.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Our goal is to provide an avenue to allow all youth interested in participating in Scouting the ability to do so. To break down the barriers to joining whether they are for financial reasons or the need to understand better what our program accomplishes.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Providing financial support to those who need it. We also provide afterschool programming for students in schools with high poverty levels as well as partnering with the YMCA.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
We have a line in our operating budget to help families in need pay for registration fees, handbooks and uniforms. We also receive funding from different foundations to underwrite the cost of our afterschool programs.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
We have increased our ability to scholarship our Scouts. In 2019 we paid either partial or full camperships for 51 Scouts to attend resident camp. we increased our afterschool program offerings from one YMCA location to two. We have also been able to not turn away any elementary students to join our afterschool programs.
We have also secured a donation that will allow our families to pay half the national registration fee with an out-of-pocket family max of $100. The current registration fee is $72 for youth and $45 for adults.
