Scrap-A-Thon

Turn Scrap into Support!

We're hosting a metal recycling fundraiser, and we need your help to make it a smashing success! Do you have old appliances, car parts, or metal scrap lying around? Don't toss them - donate them to our cause! Every bit of metal you contribute will be recycled, with proceeds going directly towards supporting Gateway Area Scouting.

Plus, it's a win-win: you declutter your space while making a positive impact on the environment and our community. Join us in turning rust into resources and together, let's forge a brighter future!

  • Bring recyclable metal to any of the following locations through Labor Day to support local Scouting.
