Participants will learn to minister to the needs of all youth and leaders and be better prepared to understand and be sensitive to serving a broad spectrum of faith groups. The course will incorporate a wide variety of elements, including counseling, conflict resolution and crisis management in a Scouting context.

  Christian Norris's Eagle Scout Service Project is making a broad impact on international communities.  Christian Norris, of Troop 312 in Irmo, SC, s partnered with Casa Feliz, an organization that provides meals, housing and treatments for children with cancer, whose families do not have the funds to afford these necessities.  He raised money to pay for services from a metal shop to manufacture heart-shaped collection bins for recycling plastic bottle caps, which is a common practice in Mexico. A video to highlight the project can be found at https://youtu.be/94foHJfLEyI 


If you wish to contribute as the project continues, the gofundme link is active: www.Gofundme.com/f/future-eagle-fights-cancer (100% of donations are used to purchase additional heart-shaped recycling bins, which create an indefinite sustainable donation to pay for cancer treatments, housing, and meals)
