Ideal Applicant
A local Boy Scouts council or a nonprofit delivering Scouting-related youth programs with an existing relationship or clear partnership alignment with Scouting America.
Good Fit
- • Is an official local council or program partner of the Boy Scouts of America.
- • Proposes direct support for local Scouting programs or council operations.
- • Has an existing relationship with national Scouting staff or past receipt of Scouting America funds.
- • Is located in or serves a state previously funded by the foundation (multiple states observed, with Texas prominent).
Geography
Grants in the latest year reached organizations across 16 states, showing a multi-state footprint even though most dollars in 2024 were concentrated in Texas.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 34 distinct recipients with 23 returning grantees and 11 new ones, indicating a broad set of independent recipients despite heavy dollar concentration in a few large awards.
New Applicants
Direct evidence shows new grantees were funded in the latest year (11 new recipients), but no formal application process is published; observed behavior suggests relationship-driven selection with some turnover, so new entrants are plausible but not clearly encouraged by a public process.
