Scouting for Food (November)

Cub Scouts make a promise to "help others at all times." Every year, our pack does this by holding a food drive for our community. We will be collecting nonperishable food during the month of November to donate to our community food bank, NJ RISE.

Use the following resources to support your collection efforts during the drive:

Scouting for Food Mailbox Letter

Thank You Letter

Print out the flyer, cut it into thirds, and sign your name. You can leave this thank you card when you pickup any items from your neighbors.

Food Collection Reminders:

  • Always have an adult with you when going around your neighborhood.

  • Be aware of traffic when walking around your neighborhood. Stick to sidewalks whenever possible.

  • Respect your neighbors' properties.

  • Use your manners when interacting with neighbors: say "hello," introduce yourself (by your first name only), and always say "thank you."
