Scouting for Food 2020

A NEW TAKE ON AN OLD CLASSIC

Thank you…

For your patience and understanding as

we navigate this new world together

For your volunteer time as we try

something new

Take what you know about SFF

Just the FACTS

We will not be printing door hangers We will not be doing any in person activity on November 7 We will not be collecting food from door steps We will not be collecting clothing

What we will be doing…

We will have food only donation drop off locations on November 14, for

the community to drop food off at

Our Food Bank will also be receiving monetary donations We will be giving you a PDF flyer for email and content for social media to

deliver to the community

We will need your help in spreading the word

Tips for Success

Share this flyer more than once! Post it on all your social media accounts…more than once! Ask your COR to put this in their bulletins, social media accounts,

websites

Keep a tracker to identify who is doing it Build a campaign Record a Scout in uniform giving facts on hunger and how

you can donate to help (under 2 min video)

Service Hour Ideas

Scouts can make signs for the neighborhood Scouts can stand on busy street corners near drop off

sites with additional signage

Scouts can go to local businesses that are open and ask

to put the flyer in their window

If there is a local organization that is also accepting food

in your area, you may use the fillable pdf flyer to guide donors there (please count the food though)
