Pack Night Hike: December 10th

Scouting for Food

Every November Scouts participate in the good turn initiative, Scouting for Food. This month-long food drive benefits local food banks across our territory during a time when families need it the most: the holidays.

The idea is that over the course of the month, Scouts distribute notes to let their neighbors know about the drive. Then Scouts return a week or two later to pick canned goods, cereal, pasta, and other nonperishable items.

More details to come at our next pack meeting on Tuesday, October 22nd! Let’s see how many pounds of food we can collect for families in need!!!

Scouting for Food 2023

For the sixth year, Pack 180 will go Scouting for Food.

During November, Scouts distribute bags with notes to let their neighbors know about the food drive. Scouts then return a week or two later to pick up the bags filled with canned goods, cereal, pasta and other nonperishable items.

Items collected by Pack 180 will support the NNEMAP food ministry, a cooperative ministry of over 30 churches distributing food and material assistance to residents of the near north side of Columbus.
