Donors & Partners

Scouts

SCOUTS South Africa does not exist in isolation. We are part of a local and global community and work in partnership with others, from individuals to organisations and institutions. As a non profit organisation we rely on local partnerships and donations for our sustainability and quality programmes and initiatives.

Thank You!

We are grateful to all our current donors and partners who make Scouting a reality! Your support and donations make it possible for us to contribute to the development of children, youths and young adults. Not only have you contributed to the sustainability of Scouting in South Africa but you have made it possible for us to train youth in responsible leadership, in good citizenship and simultaneously in developing their spiritual, social, intellectual and physical qualities.

How can you help?
