A Scout is Helpful:
- A Scout cares about other people, willingly volunteers to assist others and does so without expecting payment or reward.
This principle is a core part of the Scout Law, which guides scouts to be of service or assistance to others at all times.
- Scouts aim to do at least one good turn to someone every day, quietly and without boasting.
- A helpful scout does not wait to be asked; they actively look for opportunities to provide assistance, at home, school, or in their community.
- A scout is prepared to help, as indicated by the motto "Be Prepared," which means having the skills and training needed to aid in emergencies.
- A scout takes action rather than being a bystander, such as helping an elderly neighbor, cleaning up trash, or assisting a friend.
- Helpful acts are done without expecting compensation.
