About the Foundation

 

The Belize Scout Endowment Foundation was established in 1996 at the request of the National Scout Assembly of The Scout Association of Belize. It is registered with the Government of Belize.

It is a separate incorporated body from The Scout Association of Belize whose purpose is to raise, invest and administer funds for use in any special Scouting purpose or project anywhere in Belize, which is not within the field of normal day-to-day operations.

More specifically, the interest of the Fund is used to support the membership expansion program, the improvement of Camp Oakley – the training and camping grounds of the Association; the training of volunteer adult Leaders; the implementation of national programs; subsidy of uniforms to needy Scouts and scholarships to attend camps, both locally and internationally.
