Over the years, 1stHKCSG has supported over 3,000 youths as they reach their full potential. Scouting is the perfect place for kids to be kids – immersed in nature and learn to respect nature, taking on new challenges and discovering the best in themselves. Through adventures like camping, hiking and paddling, new friendships are formed and memories are made, opening the door to exciting real-life hands-on experiences (by putting down the phone). Scouts learn to nurture an active, healthy lifestyle and acquire the skills for career development. Trying new things like zip lining empowers youth with the confidence and self-esteem to take on the challenges life brings.

Scouts builds leaders.  Our youth-led program sets youth up for future success, providing them with the skills and values to make a positive impact on the society.  Contributing to our community, Scouts help build a better society as active citizens creating positive changes.  Learning by doing is the core to the Scout Method.  This philosophy helps youth to gain leadership skills.  Youth learn to lead by actually leading.  Along the way, they develop into capable, confident individuals, better prepared for success in the world.  

Rooted in the Scout Law, Scouts teaches youth to be respectful, positive and trustworthy.  In Scouts, youth have opportunities to develop their abilities, to think critically, to plan, to solve problems, to innovate and to use information in an original way.  This helps them develop practical skills they can apply to become the person they want to be.  

Scouting youths learn to take responsibilities for themselves while still respecting the needs of others, embracing positive values like kindness and acceptance.  From food drives to beach cleanups, Scouts encourages youth to give back.  They express a strong sense of civic responsibility and environmental awareness.  

Here are just a few examples of how Scouting youth are giving back and making an impact on their communities.
