Brandon Sadowski Campership

This Campership was created in 2021 by the Family and Friends of Brandon Sadowski to provide financial assistance to Scouts so that they can participate in a Boy Scout Council long-term camping program or high adventure program.

If you would like to make a contribution to the Brandon Sadowski campership fund, please make checks payable to Rainbow Council. All donations will be invested and the interest on the fund will be awarded annually. Your donation will help insure that every Scout has the opportunity to experience everything.
