James Havey discovered his passion for helping the downtrodden and underprivileged after a trip to Mexico in middle school. He went on a trip with a Christian ministry to volunteer in orphanages around Monterrey, Mexico. “It was on this first trip down to Monterrey that I saw what poverty can do to a family, and what non-governmental organizations are doing to help alleviate these situations, ” Havey says. Today, Havey, volunteering with the Catholic organization Mary Knoll Missioners, is helping people subjected to human trafficking in Cambodia, working on an unprecedented 10-year research study in that country. The effort aims to better understand ......
As young people continue to join Scouts BSA from coast to coast, national outlets like CBS News and The New York Times have taken note. Both major media sources recently spoke with girls who have joined the iconic Scouting program about what it means to them to be able to participate in the adventures and activities that the Boy Scouts of America provide. Lora P., who is among the first girls to join a Scouts BSA troop in the Greater New York Councils, shared her perspective with The New York Times. “I didn’t necessarily think about it as creating history — because it’s ......
With his helicopter blades spinning less than 10 feet from a vertical rock wall, Lt. Matthew Schwab’s margin for error was dangerously small. For his most daring mission, the search and rescue pilot had quickly and safely transported his team from Naval Air Station Whidbey Island, Wash., to a jagged rock chute on Mount Stuart, the state’s sixth-highest mountain. The flight was imperiled by strong winds, high altitude and smoke drifting south from forest fires in Canada. Once he arrived, Schwab positioned the chopper over the survivor. A rescuer dropped 120 feet down, placed a harness around the man and hoisted ......

With its 19 stainless steel statues honoring those who served, the Korean War Veterans Memorial is a place of reverential respite from the noise of Washington. On Tuesday afternoon, that silence temporarily was replaced by the sounds of gravel being scooped and brooms sweeping polished granite. But the cause of this noise, and its result, made the interruption well worth it. A group of Scouts, Venturers and adult volunteers representing the BSA’s Report to the Nation delegation participated in a service project at the memorial, completing a Good Turn for the National Park Service and reaffirming a longtime relationship between the two groups. ......
