Leadership Training Financial Assistance Fund

Partial-fee financial assistance is available for Scouts and Scouters to help offset the course fees (up to 50%) for National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT) and Wood Badge.  

Your gift to the leadership training financial assistance fund enables Scouts and Scouters to receive leadership training so they can, in turn, help develop character, citizenship, and fitness in the lives of hundreds of young people.

Financial assistance for Scouts and Scouters who cannot attend training because of financial circumstances is only available because of the generous donations from people like you. One hundred percent of the funds collected through this leadership training financial assistance fund go into the financial assistance fund.

The financial assistance requests are granted based on need. If you know a Scout or Scouter who needs financial assistance, there are applications on the web pages for National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT) and Wood Badge.
