Why I give...

“I will always believe that learning something new every day is exciting and deepens our enjoyment of life. Form a new idea, acquire a new skill, demonstrate a new capability. It doesn’t matter how old you are. With that in mind, I ask myself, will we create a Scouting leadership complex that will truly change the world? Can we impress upon future generations the importance of lifelong learning? And lastly, can I apply the lessons I have learned across the years to inspire, encourage, and motivate young people? Those are the questions that keep me engaged today.”

“If you look at the outcome of Scouting programs, you see it 30, 40, or 50 years later in the kinds of leaders it turns out. To me, the results speak for themselves.”
