The Northeast Illinois Council Silver Merit Society recognizes benefactors whose lifetime of giving to the Council exceeds $50,000.  Membership in this society offers special benefits, including preferred access to council information, programs, and events. Members are also recognized on our Silver Merit Society donor wall at the Kasperson Center for Scouting at Morrison Park. Perhaps the most meaningful reward is strengthening the Northeast Illinois Council’s mission to develop today’s youth into tomorrow’s leaders.

Our next Silver Merit Society reception at KCS will be on Wednesday, December 17. 2025.
