What We Stand For - Since its founding in 1910, the Boy Scouts of America has continued to provide programs which meet the developmental needs of young people, and has remained constant in its core values as found in the Boy Scout Promise and Scout Law. Each phase of the program meets needs of that group age, and develops youth in character, citizenship, personal and mental fitness. The programs of the Boy Scouts of America address today's community needs, in providing sound leaders, responsible citizens, and individuals prepared for the challenge of today. The program continues to emphasize service, especially to combat the national disgrace of hunger; to prepare our young people for the working world though merit badges and career Exploring; and to fight illiteracy through handbooks, and Boy's Life Magazine, providing informative and interesting reading. The Boy Scouts of America continues to promote "Be Prepared," and "Do A Good Turn Daily," the values for which it is most commonly known.
