Decision

9.0.2.5. Choose a beneficiary and a project

Required

A religious institution, a school, or your community. A council may emphasise local efforts but should not deny worthy projects of a wider scope, up to and including the community of the world.

Notes and warnings

Note. The Guide is explicit that a wider scope is allowed: Scouts who want to put their projects to work for the community of the world may do so, and a council may prefer local efforts but should not deny a worthy project for being larger than that.
