Need help funding your scouts activities? We can help! The Flint River Council has created Specific Assistance as a way to provide Scouting programs to youth and adults who otherwise can’t afford it. Funding is provided from sources such as The Friends of Scouting Fundraising Campaign, Popcorn Sale, and the Camp Card Sale.
Specific Assistance is available to provide funding assistance to youth and adult Scouters for:
- BSA Youth Handbook
- BSA Field Uniform
- Registration Fees (BSA Membership Fee & Council Program Fee)
- Camperships in the Flint River Council
- Adult and Youth Training in the Flint River Council
For more information, see the Specific Assistance Application.
