Whether it’s the joy of sharing the program with new families or the drive to build stronger communities through youth development, our “why” often comes down to one thing: making a difference.
Our staff reminds us that when you love what you do and believe in the mission behind it, the work becomes more than work — it becomes a meaningful way to leave the world better than you found it.
Here’s what a few of our team members had to say about what drives them to serve through Scouting:
Why do you work for Circle Ten Council?
“ Not only do I believe in what the company stands for and the values it promotes, but I
also enjoy being part of one of the top Scouting teams in the nation. I want kids to have
the same experiences that I was able to have when I was a Scout, and Circle Ten is one
of the best avenues in the nation to do so.”
“My WHY is very simple: I love what I do, and I want others to enjoy what Scouting has
to offer.”
“I enjoy working towards a mission. I have a passion for youth development and finding
ways to make our community a better place.”
“I work at Circle Ten because I deeply believe in the work, we're doing to build stronger,
more inclusive communities. Being part of a team that leads with purpose and integrity
gives me the opportunity to contribute to something bigger than myself, and that’s what
drives me every day.”
“Countless studies have shown that young people who grow up in Scouting exhibit
higher moral standards, stronger connections with family and classmates, take on more
leadership roles and strive to ‘do what is right’.
No young person joins Scouting to develop their character, but at the end of the day, that’s exactly what Scouting does. Personally, I can’t imagine a more important or worthwhile endeavor than being part of changing the lives of our young people.”

“I care about helping families and leaders feel supported from the very start. Knowing
that my work helps Scouts begin their journey - and stay on it - makes it meaningful to me
everyday.”
“I believe Scouting gives youth a meaningful, purpose-driven way to spend their
childhood. I also hope to be a welcoming voice for foster children and others who may
be looking for a place to belong and grow through Scouting.”
“Scouting allows adult leaders to grow and develop, learn new interests and skills, and
make a meaningful contribution to the community through service to youth. It gives a
platform and creates intentionality for families to have experiences together that bring
them closer together. Working for Circle Ten allows me to be a part of creating those
opportunities and growth for adult Scouters.”
“I believe in the power the Scouting program has to positively shape and better young
people’s futures and the future of our country as a whole. I have been with the council
for quite a few years now, but I am still motivated each day by the proven and
measurable ways Scouting builds character, resilience, and leadership - traits that last a
lifetime.
Another great benefit of working here at Circle Ten is the quality of Scouting volunteers that I get to work with every day, many of whom I would never have had the opportunity to meet and get to know otherwise.”
