What does SCOUTS SA do?
We prepare young people
with skills for life
Through an exciting programme, youth develop character traits like resilience, initiative and tenacity; employability skills such as leadership, teamwork and problem solving; and practical skills like cooking and first aid. As they learn by doing they embody solid values and develop into contributing citizens who will be the leaders and change makers our country needs.
Thank you for your generosity and commitment to empowering youth through Scouting.
Together, we can make a lasting impact!
