Scouting continues to grow and thrive within our council for many reasons, not the least of which is funding. The Greenwich Council and Black Wolf District serve the Town of Greenwich and its youth and families.

The Family Friends of Scouting campaign is conducted annually among the parents of Scouts and volunteer leaders.  Families are the ones who see firsthand the benefit of Scouting for their child.  District and unit volunteers conduct the campaign in order to give all Scout families the opportunity to support the Scouting program.
