Scouting for Food

My son is out this morning, collecting for the Scouting For Food drive. Last week, they went around and dropped off bags at houses around the community; today they go back, and hope to find LOTS of the bags filled with cans of food. They'll deliver the donations to a local food pantry. It's a great service project, with scouts of all ages, all around the country taking part. If you didn't have a chance to donate, why not take the opportunity and drop something by your nearest Food Pantry?

i think it's a wonderful thing to do. i donate canned food for the post office drive in may and have helped orginize 50/50s etc for the deer lakes food pantry. i think having scouts do this teaches many valuable lessons and can't help but make them more understanding.
