Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS RECEIVE NATIONAL CHARTERS TO USE THE SCOUTING PROGRAM AS PART OF THEIR OWN YOUTH WORK IN THE SUWANNEE RIVER AREA COUNCIL.

Activities or mission (Part I)

THE MISSION OF SCOUTING AMERICA IS TO SERVE OTHERS BY HELPING TO INSTILL VALUE IN YOUNG PEOPLE AND PREPARE THEM TO MAKE ETHICAL CHOICES OVER THEIR LIFETIME IN ACHIEVING THEIR FULL POTENTIAL. THESE VALUES ARE BASED ON THE AIMS OF SCOUTING: TO DEVELOP GOOD CHARACTER, BUILD GOOD CITIZENSHIP AND TRAIN OUR YOUTH TO BE PERSONALLY FIT.

OUR YOUTH PARTICIPATE IN EXCITING INDOOR/OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES FOR BOYS AND GIRLS (AGES 5-20). THEY ARE UNDER THE GUIDANCE OF TRAINED ADULT VOLUNTEERS, WHO HELP THEM DEVELOP THE LIFE SKILLS THEY NEED TO BECOME FUTURE LEADERS AND ACTIVE CITIZENS IN THEIR COMMUNITIES. THESE SKILLS INCLUDE INTERDEPENDENCE, ETHICAL DECISION MAKING, CONFLICT RESOLUTION, SELF-ESTEEM, LITERACY DEVELOPMENT, SEXUAL RESPONSIBILITY, POSITIVE PEER RELATIONSHIPS, SERVICE TO OTHERS, MENTORING SKILLS, DRUG AWARENESS EDUCATION, TEAMWORK, FITNESS, POSITIVE TEEN-ADULT RELATIONSHIPS, SCHOOL-TO-WORK SKILLS, EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS, CHARACTER EDUCATION, AND MANY MORE. OUR COUNCIL IS AN IRC SECTION 501(C)(3) NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION FUNDED BY MANY DIFFERENT SOURCES. THESE SOURCES PROVIDE NEEDED INCOME TO SUPPORT THE COUNTIES, COMMUNITIES, YOUTH, AND LEADERS THAT WE SERVE FULL TIME. OUR COLLEGE-EDUCATED AND TRAINED PROFESSIONAL STAFF MANAGES OUR MANY VOLUNTEERS ANNUALLY TO PROVIDE LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT, OPERATION OF COUNCIL FACILITIES AND NEEDED SPECIALIZED PROGRAMS. WE RECEIVE INCOME FROM SIX AREAS: ANNUAL FRIENDS OF SCOUTING CAMPAIGN, PROJECT SALES, RETAIL STORE, ACTIVITIES, OUTDOOR EDUCATION, ENVIRONMENTAL FACILITIES, AND INVESTMENTS. COUNCIL EXPENSES FROM OUR ANNUAL BUDGET CAN BE BROKEN DOWN AS FOLLOWS: 75.52% TO PROGRAM EXPENSES; 17.63% TO ADMINISTRATION EXPENSES; AND 6.85% TO FUNDRAISING EXPENSES. THESE PERCENTAGES ARE BASED UPON BI-ANNUAL TIME STUDIES CONDUCTED ON OUR STAFF. AN AUDIT IS HELD EACH YEAR, REQUESTED BY OUR COUNCIL VOLUNTEER EXECUTIVE BOARD AS PART OF OUR POLICY OF SOLID FISCAL MANAGEMENT PRACTICES.

The first 25 listed. Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Not present in the most recent drop.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
