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.

Complete the upper portion of the VIP application form and send it to the

Grand Canyon Council
Director of Development

2969 N Greenfield Rd

Phoenix, AZ 85016

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.

"Friends of Scouting" needs help
Please consider an online donation to Friends of Scouting as a way to continue to support scouting. It's easy, it's the right thing to do, and it's tax deductible!

Let's celebrate 100 years of Scouting in the U.S.A. with a Jamborama!
(That's a combination of a Jamboree and Scout-O-Rama coming in April 2010!)
