PRIOR TO OCTOBER 25 Participating units sign up for the service project by filling out the form on this website. Your District’s volunteer Scouting For Food Chair will contact participating units to arrange a time and location to pick up bags (bags are only available in some counties) for canvassing neighborhoods.
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 2 Unit canvas their pre-identified neighborhoods, placing Scouting For Food flyers or bags on doorsteps in local neighborhoods. Remember, it is illegal to place bags or flyers in mailboxes.
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 9 Your Scouting unit returns to their same neighborhood between 9:30 am – 12 pm to collect any donated food residents have left on their doorstep. Food donations can be taken to one of our sponsored collection points provided in the link below. We will post additional locations here as we confirm them.
