Where your donations go
We recognize that every donation made to the Friends of Stoneham Scouting is a commitment from our community to help build our young people to be men and women of character. Our 100% volunteer management ensures that every dollar raised is used to improve the access to the Scouting program for our youth.
trip subsidies
Access to the outdoors has gotten progressively more expensive since the founding of Scouting America in 1910. We make sure that a Scout never skips a trip due to financial hardship.
Equipment
The Troop and Pack need to have properly maintained equipment so that every Scout can learn and grow in a safe environment. This equipment is subject to the elements so it needs regular maintenance and replacement.
Recruitment
Scouting is at its best when our meetings are packed with excited youth. Today, kids have even more options for programs in which to participate. We want to make sure that every family in Stoneham has the opportunity to participate in Scouting.
