Volunteers Needed!
Step up and volunteer to join the Pack Committee.  You'll learn a lot about the scouting program and make a difference in the lives of all of our scouts and families.  And your boy will learn by your good example.  Tell your den leader if you'd like to help out.  Here's what we need:

• Internet recharter person (keep our records current w/ the district)
  
• Fundraising (starting in 2010)
• Various event coordinators
  

Volunteer Incentive Programs

Volunteers throughout the Grand Canyon Council are visiting with their employers about volunteer incentive programs (different companies have differing names).  Mini-grants are made upon application and approval rewarding volunteerism. Contact your Human Resources department or Corporate Foundation for details.

Grand Canyon Council
Director of Development

We will complete the remaining portion of the form - providing validation and forwarding the application to the company for processing.

 

It is important to note that due to IRS regulations matching gifts and volunteerism grants are not available to units.
