Fundraising
One of the main responsibilities of your group executive committee is the raising of funds. This is an important task and must be done in accordance with the guidance outlined in POR.
Fundraising must be carried out legally, especially on the issues of:
-
house-to-house and street collections
-
lotteries and gaming
-
the use of children and young people
-
the sale of alcohol.
Scouting’s rules exist for two reasons. Firstly, to protect the association’s brand, reputation and image. Secondly, to ensure that fundraising is coordinated and that scouting does not compete with itself for funds.
