COVID-19 Relief Assistance
A fundamental aspect of Scouting is reinforcing to our boys the importance of contributions and support of our local community, especially during times of need.
"In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven. - Matthew 5:16
To support our Northern Virginia community at such a critical point in time, Pack 301 is collecting money for the COVID-19 Response Fund for Northern Virginia. We have set a goal of $5,000.00 to be raised by the Pack. The Scout that raises the most money by July 31st will receive a $40 gift card to Domino’s Pizza! If each Scout secures just four $20 donations, we would exceed our goal. A big thank you to Bear Den Leader Lee Crouch for taking the initiative to plan and set up this fundraiser for the community. Several requirements can be met by working on and discussing this fundraiser with your family. Check your rank advancement requirements closely and speak with your Den Leaders.
The COVID-19 Response Fund provides funding for nonprofit organizations and other programs in our region responding to COVID-19 and its impacts. The Fund’s focus is to help communities who are disproportionately impacted by the virus and its economic consequences. The Fund is designed to complement the work of public health officials (as COVID-19 is a public health issue). Funding decisions will be made in consultation with them across our entire service area in Northern Virginia.
We encourage you to discuss this opportunity with your Scout. They are well aware of how COVID has impacted our lives this year, and this is a great opportunity to put a positive spin on such a tragic time. Encourage them to reach out to friends and family. Most of all, remind them of how hard our first responders and health care officials are working to keep us all safe.
To ensure that donations are properly credited for this purpose and on behalf Pack 301, please ensure that individuals who donate adhere to the steps outlined below to be counted toward the fundraising goal for Pack 301:
