Boy Scouts Grand Canyon Council collected more than 30,000 pounds of food at the annual Scouting for Food Drive, aimed to fight hunger throughout the community.
Through the generosity of parents, volunteers, friends, and neighbors the Scouts were able to give back to United Food Bank in Mesa and St. Mary’s Food Bank in Phoenix.
All food donations support the Boy Scouts’ mission to ease the pain of hunger one in six Arizonans and one in four Arizona youths are impacted by food insecurity. Scouting for Food is an annual drive and an opportunity for Scouts to participate in community service and fight hunger.
