The family Friends of Scouting (FOS) campaign is an annual giving campaign conducted at the Pack and Troop level between the months of January thru March. The unit presentation is conducted at a Pack or Troop meeting by unit and district Scouters. The objective of the presentation is to inform parents on how Scouting dollars are raised and spend back into their son's program. This presentation is also an opportunity for the parents to make a financial contribution to show their support of the program and the council's efforts to continue Scouting in the future.
In November or December the District Family Friends of Scouting Chairman will call on your unit to select a date in February or March to have the Family Friends of Scouting presentation. Allow about 10 minutes for the presentation. Your Unit will receive a unit flag. Individual contributors will have the opportunity to participate at different levels to receive a collector's edition Norman Rockwell Mug, a new Norman Rockwell Collectors Plate. The new fill it up patch, new Collectable Friends of Scouting council strip and cool key chain.If you want to make a donation now to the Black Swamp Area Council?

We urgently need your help so our organization can continue to earn funds through Kroger Community Rewards. We sent a letter in March reminding organizations that their members must re-enroll in Kroger Community Rewards in order to collect funds during the coming year. Unfortunately, only 37 percent of households enrolled in the program in 2009 have re-enrolled for 2010.
As you may recall, $5 million is at stake through this program, with Kroger awarding $1,250,000 every quarter and participating organizations able to earn up to $50,000 every three months. Since we are already into the first quarter for 2010, your organization may already be missing out on funding that members could be earning.
Re-enrolling in Kroger Community Rewards is quick and easy. Ask members to visit www.krogercommunityrewards.com and click on “Columbus” and “Enroll.”
As you know, times are tough and Kroger is pleased to be able to help support local organizations through Kroger Community Rewards. The program allows members to earn funds for your group every time they present their Kroger Plus Card to purchase food and other items they use every day.
Please do not let your Rewards expire during 2010. Contact your members and encourage them to RE-ENROLL in Kroger Community Rewards today! Our organization code is 81324.
One of the responsibilities of the council and district finance committees is to work out a plan for keeping units finance and to approve proposed unit money-earning projects.
It is important that the unit committee understands its responsibility for guiding the finances of the unit. It promotes the proper use of the unit budget plan, both as a sound method of securing unit funds and also as a means of training boys in thrift, in paying their own way, and in the planning and wise administration of unit funds.
The unit committee also guides the unit in earning money for such Scouting needs as camping trips and unit equipment. Unit committees need to be informed of policies concerning unit money-earning projects. These policies protect both the character development values of the program and the good name of Scouting.

* Fund Raising Policies and Procedures
