Support Scott Hayes' Fight Against Cancer

Donation protected
Our dear friend, Scott Hayes has been bravely battling neck cancer for the past two years. After initially overcoming his diagnosis, Scott is facing a new and aggressive battle as the cancer has returned. He is currently seeking treatment at Johns Hopkins, which will require him to be away from home for at least a month.

Scott and his wife Ratna, along with their two wonderful children, have been dedicated members of our Scouting community . They have selflessly given their time to lead Cub Scout dens, became assistant scout leaders at the Troop level, and teach our scouts vital leadership skills. Now, it’s our turn to support them in their time of need.

The ongoing treatments and time away from work have significantly impacted their finances. To help alleviate some of the unexpected expenses they are facing, we are organizing a fundraising effort. Every contribution, no matter how small, will make a difference and show Scott and his family that they are not alone in this fight.

Let’s come together to show our love and support for Scott, Ratna, and their children during this difficult time. Thank you for your generosity and kindness.

UPDATE: JUNE 20, 2025
Words cannot express how grateful the family is and how overwhelmed they have been by YOUR kindness and generosity. It has allowed the family to solely focus their attention on Scott as he continues to battle this dreaded disease. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
