Monday, August 24, 2020 Dear Friend of Scouting, The Boy Scouts of America (Tax ID 59-0624376) continues to strive to make this country better one youth at a time. Our aim is to create an environment for youth throughout Central Florida to become better versions of themselves and continue to prepare them to become leaders of character our communities and our country need to heal and grow! Youth in Scouting learn to make the right choices, put others before themselves, and lead with compassion and confidence, gifts that are cherished well into adulthood. As we continue our tradition of providing a first-class character education and leadership program and to meet the demands of serving our growing Scouting membership of over 23,000 youth, the Central Florida Council needs your help by supporting our Online Auction!
