The Holiday Giving Tree

Posted on Nov 12 2023 - 8:22am
Your Help is Requested
 
Crossroads Outfitters is providing an opportunity for the Scouting community to help local Scout members who may be in need of uniforms and uniform items.
 
This help will be done through The Holiday Giving Tree program starting November 20 through December 15, 2023. The Holiday Giving Tree program works on a donation basis. A Holiday Giving tree (similar to an Angel tree) will be set up at Crossroads Outfitters with Holiday Giving cards on it. Each card will have the first name of the Scout along with the uniform items that they need. There will also be a space for other items they may want such as books, crafts, camping items, etc. Customers and Scout supporters can purchase the item(s) in their local Scout Shop and give them to the store staff to collect for each child.
 
We will keep the name of the individual(s) confidential. Only the store staff will have access to the Scout’s name and your contact information. A code will be issued that will match a card in the safe that will have your contact information, so as the donations are collected store staff will contact you so arrangements for pickup can be made.
 
We need your assistance to make this project a success. Please fill out the information below and return to the store by November 17, 2023, for every Scout who would benefit from donations.
 
If you have any concerns or questions, please contact the store staff by email: 160indyss@crossroadsbsa.org. Thank you in advance for your assistance.
 
With leaders like you, this program will greatly benefit our Scouting community.

The Samaritan's Purse project Operation Christmas Child collects shoebox gifts filled with fun toys, school supplies, and personal care items and delivers them to children in need around the world to demonstrate God's love in a tangible way. For many of these children, the gift of this filled shoebox is the first gift they have ever received.

We all love and need gear. Alps Mountaineering has a program that gives registered Scouts and Scouters a discount on the gear we typically use. The backpacking tents the troop has are from Alps. There's a lot of other gear beside tents too, sleeping bags, rain gear, backpacks and camp chairs come to mind.
