"Recognizing individuals for their financial contributions to the World Scout Foundation."
A WORLD-WIDE FELLOWSHIP OF PATRONAGE

THE WORLD SCOUT FOUNDATION...

... helps the growth and development of Scouting worldwide by providing financial support for the World Organization of the Scout Movement. It does this by permanently investing capital donations from individuals, foundations, corporations, governments, and from members of the Scout Movement who want to help young people learn positive values and become tomorrow's leaders. The Foundation also seeks non-capital donations to support specific World Scouting projects.

FOUNDATION LEADERSHIP

The Foundation enjoys the very active leadership of its Honorary President, His Majesty King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden. Chairmanship of the Foundation is William F. "Rick" Cronk (from our council!). Mr. Lars Kolind of Denmark is the Chairman-elect.
