Who likes popcorn??

It is time once again for children all over the country to knock on doors and ask if you might buy something as a fundraiser for their group.  Be it wrapping paper, magazines, candy, or popcorn these children are representing very worthy groups and would appreciate your contribution. 

 

I would like to introduce you to the Boy Scouts of America.  These boys are fundraising by selling popcorn.  The boys, through BSA, learn leadership, teamwork, and citizenship.  It's not just about camping and hiking or tying knots though that is part of the fun. 

The boys are asking you to help them be able to continue these activities and many more by buying a tin of caramel corn, or a box of microwave popcorn, or some other type or flavor that there is to choose from.

 

                             

So, during the next month, when a young man in a blue or beige scout uniform asks you to buy popcorn, please order some. 

On a real estate note, you could write off a popcorn purchase as a business expense if you bought tins of popcorn as closing gifts for your clients. 

If for any reason, you can't have popcorn, a donation to your local pack or troop is also greatly appreciated.

Yes, I'm a boy scout mom.   I'm very proud of my boys and help our troop out as much as possible.  I get the boys started with the popcorn sales each year and organize all the paperwork that goes with it.

The boy scout law truly is "Words to Live By"

Yes indeed Debi.  The chocolate covered caramel corn is my favorite.  Today 3 of our troop sold outside of Safeway.  They sold $170 and received about $30 in donations.  It's a good start.   Thanks for commenting.
