Westmoreland Fayette County Boy Scouts of America

W.D. Boyce brought Scouting to America from England in 1910.  The program came to our two counties a year later in 1911.  The year 1937 saw the two counties merge into one local Council which today is a non-profit corporate operating with volunteer officers and a volunteer board of directors.  The Council employs 11 professional staff and 5 office staff and serves about 10,000 youth through the Cub Scouting, Boy Scouting, Venturing and Learning for Life programs.

Serving and Supporting Your Community

Our Mission

Mission Statement
The Community Foundation of Fayette County promotes philanthropy and community improvement by attracting, managing, and distributing charitable resources.


Why choose a Community Foundation for your charitable giving?
There are many reasons why it makes sense to make charitable donations to a community foundation, rather than donating directly to a charity.  Most importantly, you can make multiple designations through one gift, and guarantee stewardship of that gift.  You can make unrestricted contributions and have them directed to organizations with the most need.  And you can rest assured that your gift will keep on giving, even if your favorite charity goes out of business.  You will be creating a legacy in your family's name.
