My son is a very proud Cub Scout. Every year the Scouts sell popcorn to raise money for all of their fun-filled and educational activities. The popcorn sales are very beneficial to the Pack because 70% of all sales go back to the Pack. You can help by clicking here (my son’s sales for his Pack) to buy popcorn or by supporting your local Pack.
If you do not want any popcorn, you can still help the Scouts while also helping out military service-members. The popcorn company, Trails End, has partnered with Support Our Troops to give consumers an option of making a donation of popcorn to military personnel. If you choose the military donation option, the purchase should be 100% tax deductible (as always, make sure to double check this with your tax professional, as tax laws often change). What a great program this is. The community can help out Scouts like my son and his Pack and at the same time make a donation to military men and women.
If you are interested in supporting Scouting by buying popcorn or donating to our troops you can find more info here (my son’s sales for his Pack) or by contacting your local Pack.
I think Cub Scouts are a great organization! I am looking forward to when DS is old enough to participate in something like that.
I didn’t realize we could just do a military donation…great idea!!!1
I never knew about this before, thanks for the info
Thanks for sharing!! I would buy popcorn from the Boy Scouts but never see any boys selling it around here.

I just bought the Silver package for the proud men and women fighting for our country. Made me feel like I tried to pay them back some how. Although, their sacrifices are priceless. Thanks for the opportunity.
