Friends of Scouting is an opportunity for families, friends, alumni, business and community organizations to support Scouting.
Many corporations match employee contributions made to the Sam Houston Area Council. Some companies even make financial contributions for volunteering time to Scouting.
Numerous local companies recognize volunteer time through the donation of cash grants to non-profits in which their employees volunteer. This means that for each hour of volunteer time, employers donate funds to support the Sam Houston Area Council. Volunteer time is money with volunteer grants.
