James West Fellowship

James West Fellowship

An integral part of the Great Lakes Council’s strategic plan is to expand the Council’s Endowment Trust fund to ensure our future financial stability.  To help accomplish that, the council continues its promotion of the James E. West Fellowship. This fellowship award, named after the first Chief Scout Executive of the Boy Scouts of America, is a national recognition for those who contribute $1,000 or more in cash or securities to the local Council Endowment fund.  Each donor will be recognized with a personalized 8 by 10 inch certificate, distinctive lapel pin/charm and an embroidered square knot.

In support of local council endowment gifts, the Central Region Is introducing a NEW special recognition program for James E. West gifts between the entry-level Fellowship and the 1910 Society.

The NEW levels are:
 Fellowship $1,000 Gold $10,000
 Silver $5,000 Diamond $15,000

Information and applications are available from Norm Bateman, Chairman of the Council’s James E. West Committee, from a District James E. West Chairman, or by calling Jarrod Holmes, Dr. Development Director, at (313)361-1250.
