Making your will provides comfort to you, knowing your loved ones will be looked after once you’re gone. We’ve partnered with will-writing experts, Octopus Legacy, to give Scouts supporters the opportunity to write their wills for free. After you’ve looked after your family and friends, would you consider leaving a gift in your will to Scouts?

ON THIS DATE: October 18, 1967, Disney’s The Jungle Book was released in theaters, 59 years ago today! 🌿🐻

From Baloo’s “The Bare Necessities” to King Louie’s “I Wan’na Be Like You,” this classic gave us songs we’re still singing and characters we’ve loved since childhood. 🎶

Phil Harris brought Baloo to life, alongside Sebastian Cabot as Bagheera, Louis Prima as King Louie, and Sterling Holloway as Kaa.

The Jungle Book also holds a special place in Disney history as the last animated feature Walt Disney personally supervised. His influence lives on in a film that generations of families have enjoyed together. ❤️

Did you first see The Jungle Book in a theater or watch it at home?
