Lord Baden-Powell Society

Supporting 300 Scouts to Attend AJ2022

The Lord Baden-Powell Society need your help to send 300 Scouts to the next Jamboree, AJ2022, to be held in Victoria! 

 

Over many years, our loyal Members and Supporters have been very generous in supporting our Annual Jamboree Appeal.

We have exhausted current funds used to support 186 young Scouts attend the 25th Australian Jamboree in Tailem Bend (Adelaide), SA, in January 2019.

Our Jamboree Fund Reserves are still lower than our intended target.  We now need your financial support to help 300 disadvantaged Scouts attend the next Australian Jamboree in Victoria in 2022 – with the hope of achieving our intended target.

For many young Scouts, attending a Jamboree would be their first significant, character building adventure:

  • Away from home for nine nights
  • Having to manage and take responsibility for themselves
  • Meeting new people from different cultures and walks of life, and
  • Working in Patrols to get the jobs done.

The benefits and experiences from the Jamboree are endless and will be remembered by those young Australian Scouts forever.

We need to raise $150,000 to reach our next goal.

EVERY dollar you donate goes directly to supporting a young Scout attend the next Australian Jamboree through all Branches Australia wide.

Your tax deductible donation to the Jamboree Fund will be greatly appreciated, and whatever the amount, it will go a long way to helping young Scouts in need to attend one of the greatest events and formative experiences of their young lives.
