What is a “Charter Organization”?

A chartered organization is a community-based group whose objectives, mission and methodologies are compatible with those of the BSA. It agrees to use the Scouting program to further its mission to serve young people. The partnership is intended to be deeper than, say, a sponsorship arrangement between a youth baseball team and a local business.

Troop 457’s Charter Organization is English Lutheran Church of Zelienople, PA.
