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)
