Investment in Character 2025

Support the Mission. Shape the Future.

Each year, the Longhorn Council conducts the Investment in Character campaign, our primary annual fundraising effort that helps ensure Scouting remains strong and accessible to all youth across North and Central Texas. This campaign is more than just a financial appeal; it is a commitment to building character, citizenship, and leadership in the next generation.

When you invest in local Scouting through this campaign, you're supporting more than exciting campouts and merit badges. You're helping provide essential resources like leader training, program materials, youth protection initiatives, scholarships for families in need, and safe, well-maintained camp properties like Camp Tahuaya and Sid Richardson Scout Ranch. Every dollar raised stays right here in our council and directly benefits the communities we serve.

The impact of your support is far-reaching. Scouts throughout the Longhorn Council participate in thousands of service hours each year, giving back to schools, churches, parks, and neighborhoods. They grow into responsible adults, many of whom go on to lead in business, education, public service, and beyond. By investing in Scouting, you're helping prepare young people to make ethical and informed decisions and lead lives of purpose and impact.

Your gift, large or small, makes a difference. Together, we can ensure that the values and experiences of Scouting remain available to every child who wants to join. Join us in making an Investment in Character today.
