Good Turn for Americagives us the opportunity to raise our levels of community service and increase awareness of the Scouting program within our neighborhoods. In this effort, the Boy Scouts of America is partnering with some of the nation's most respected service organizations, including The Salvation Army, Habitat for Humanity, and the American Red Cross. Many have asked, “What constitutes a good turn?” Any act of service can qualify, from Eagle projects, to unit projects, to individual Scout projects. Unlike our Scouting for Food drive which is a once-a-year effort focusing on one area of need, Good Turn for America is a year-round initiative.

Scouting for Food is coming up on February 13th, 2010.
