What Suwannee River Area Council of the Boy Scouts of America Inc does
Mission
Scouting america was founded in 1910 and exists today to serve others by helping instill values in young people and prepare them to make ethical choices during their lifetime and achieve their full potential. Community-based organizations receive national charters to use the scouting program as part of their own youth work in the suwannee river area council.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
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,…

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $2.0M to $3.3M (+64%).
