Scouting for Food is an annual food-collection drive, and one of the many service projects the Boy Scouts of America has conducted since 1910.

Over 13% of residents in our council geography – 154,000 people – are food insecure. Scouts can help make an impact by participating in Scouting for Food.

The plan is simple:

Sign up here to participate.
Distribute tags in your selected area on February 24 or 25, 2024.
Pick up the food left outside homes on March 2 or 3, 2024.
Deliver the food to your chartering organization’s food pantry or to the Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia and the Eastern Shore truck that will be in the parking lot of the council office on March 3rd from 12-4 PM.
Remember to report the amount of food collected and your service hours.

Please help us increase Scouting’s visibility and give back to our community!
