Hoosier Trails Council Request for Individual Program Fee Assistance
2
The Hoosier Trails Council wants to make sure every youth has an opportunity to fully participate in our program and give every family an opportunity to have their youth registered. To help meet this goal, a fund has been established to help families for whom the Council Program Fees may present a financial hardship. To help to ensure we continue to receive financial gifts that make this assistance program possible, all sections of the form should be filled out completely. This assistance program applies only to the Council Program Fee. BSA registration fees will need to be paid by the family or unit.
