What happens when thousands of Scouts, local businesses, and community leaders rally around a single mission? Lives are changed—one bag of food at a time.
In this episode of Miles of Impact, we shine a spotlight on Scouting for Food, one of the largest annual service projects in our communities. You’ll hear how youth leadership, generosity, and collaboration come together to make a real difference for families facing food insecurity.
Joining the conversation are incredible community partners who help turn service into impact:
- Lorna Koci, Scouting for Food Chair
- Rebekah, Bountiful Food Pantry

- Kelle, Young Caring for Our Young Foundation
Together, they share powerful stories, behind-the-scenes insights, and why partnerships like these matter now more than ever.

- How Scouting for Food supports local food pantries across our council
- The role businesses and community leaders play in amplifying youth service
- Why partnerships like Young Caring for Our Young Foundation help extend impact beyond a single day
