For Camp and Lodge Leaders
On this page we've outlined and linked to some of the information contained in the site that is most relevant to you.
National Matching Gifts and Project Grants Program
The Fraternal Program will match up to $500 of each camp/lodge’s donations each year. Support of our National Cause – Education – and of Join Hands Day Projects will be matched at 100%. Support of other pre-approved community service opportunities will also be matched at 100%. Support of all other causes, efforts, and charities will be matched at 50%. If you are involved with a charity or community service project, you can go to your local camp/lodge and request support. Priority will be given to requests for the funding of actual community service projects to which WOW/ALA volunteers contribute volunteer hours over requests for money to match donations.

Member Benefits Benefit YOU!
Invite one of our local member benefits representatives to visit your next camp or lodge meeting or speak at your next member event. You can also request materials from the Head Office to distribute to members at your next meeting or mail out with your newsletter. Remember that benefits help fund our community programs and that they are exclusive, value-added bonuses for all of us! Be sure to get the word out and let us know when you need more materials or if you'd like help promoting a particular benefit to your group.
Reporting
Good News! Reporting no longer needs to be a hassle- rather than having to remember what you did throughout the entire year, you can print a project detail recording sheet from this website each time your group does a project. Then, at the end of the year, you can submit your report online or by mail using the forms you've collected throughout the year. Take credit for your work and report it!
