The Belize Scout Endowment Foundation
The Belize Scout Endowment Foundation was established in 1996 at the request of the National Scout Assembly of the Scout Associaton of Belize. It is registered with the Government of Belize.
It is a separate incorporated body from the Scout Association of Belize whose purpose is to raise, invest and administer funds for use in any special scouting purpose or project anywhere in Belize, which is not within the field of normal day-to-day operations.
More specifically, the interest of the Fund is used to support the membership expansion program, the improvement of Camp Oakley (the training and camping grounds of the Association), the training of volunteer adult leaders, the implementation of national programs, subsidy of uniforms to needy Scouts, and scholarships to attend camps locally and internationally.
Scouting is a non-formal educational movement that provides volunteer adult leadership programs designed to be exciting, fun-filled, challenging, educational and instill a positive influence on the character of the participating young people.
It builds character (values and principles for living in harmony), promotes citizenship (pride in history, respect for our national symbols, service to others and respect and care for the environment), develops fitness and a sense of respect (social respect, physical capabilities, and moral values).
We are confident that you will wish to make a difference in the lives of many young people, and to this end, we urge you to make a generous contribution to the Foundation.
You may choose to contribute now or by way of a pledge payable over a convenient period of time. You will receive a memorable distinguished award based on the amount of your contribution. Please note that your gift will be tax deductible.
