Eagle Scout Projects

The Eagle Scout Service Project, or more simply the Eagle Scout Project, is the opportunity for a Scout to demonstrate leadership of others while performing a project for the benefit of his community. This is the culmination of the Eagle Scout candidate's leadership training, and it requires a significant effort on their part. The project must benefit an organization other than Scouting America, but it cannot be performed for an individual or a business, be solely a fundraising project, or be commercial in nature.
