For complete information on how you can help secure Scouting in the Narragansett Council or create a special “Named Fund” for your loved one please contact Development Director Michael Connolly with any questions.

JAMES E. WEST FELLOWSHIP 

The James E. West Fellowship award is available for gifts of $1,000 and up in cash or marketable securities to our Council endowment fund.

Good Turn Society 

All donors with a new gift of at least $25,000 are eligible for induction into the Good Turn Society at their lifetime cumulative giving level. Good Turn Society members exemplify all that is most admirable about Scouting, including a commitment to service above self, a drive to go above and beyond to achieve an important goal, a willingness to be a model for others, and the courage to demonstrate leadership through their investment in Scouting.
