Create Greeting Card Packs

This isn’t just for donations at Christmas. Consider all the other holidays — especially ones less publicized such as Grandparents Day and National Scout Day. Be sure to include your pack’s contact information on the back in case the recipient wants to donate at a future date.

Collect Recyclables

Many items such as inkjet cartridges, small electronics, video game consoles and more can be sent to a recycling organization for cash. These types of projects not only teach scouts about protecting the environment but also prevent products from ending up in landfills.

Mother-Son and Father Daughter Dance
