James E. West Fellowship

The James E. West Fellowship is a National recognition bestowed upon those individuals who contribute $1,000.00 or more in cash or securities to the local council's endowment trust fund. This contribution is in addition to, and does not diminish or replace, the donor's annual gift to the council's Friends of Scouting campaign. Organizations or individuals may contribute an award in honor of someone - an Eagle Scout, a Silver Beaver recipient, Scoutmaster - or in the memory of a departed loved one.

The award is named for the first Chief Scout Executive of the Boy Scouts of America who exemplified Ralph Waldo Emerson's observation that "an institution is the lengthened shadow of one man." Scouting today is the "lengthened shadow" of more than three decades of the farseeing and dedicated leadership of Dr. James E. West.
