If you Google "United Way" + "Boy Scouts", the vast majority of articles you'll see are ones about UW chapters that are funding their local BSA Councils. Only about 50 of the 1600+ UW chapters are not funding their local Councils, and many of those are funding the BSA "Learning for Life" program. And no UW chapter has any influence over the funding choices of any other UW chapter; they operate independently. Now, if you want to condemn a particular UW chapter because of it's funding policies, that's fine. But you need to understand the facts.

I send a check directly to the Boy Scouts, that way I am sure they get it and I eliminate the overhead.
