There are less than two days left in the Canberra Day Appeal, and we’re still aiming to reach our $10,000 goal. With over $9,000 already raised, we’re almost there. Please help us get over the line, if you can.

Your gift will go directly to The Scout Fund, helping young people who need financial support to start or continue their Scouting journey this year.

Even a small donation makes a real difference.

So many people in our community value Scouting for the fun, friendship and confidence it gives young people. If many of us each contribute a little, it adds up quickly. We also have a great chance to win an extra $500 by having the highest number of individual donors.

If you are able, please consider adding a gift to the bucket. Every donation helps.

All gifts over $2 are tax deductible — and very much appreciated!

Donate at this link by Friday 20 March:
