Kwanzaa - Unity and Purpose
| Category: | Holidays |

In the days after Christmas, many families will begin celebrating Kwanzaa - a festival that honors African heritage and focuses on seven guiding principles: unity, self-determination, work, responsibility, cooperation, purpose, creativity, and faith.
Those ideas sound a lot like the values Scouts live by. Every time we work together, take responsibility, and serve with purpose, we strengthen not only ourselves but also our community.
Kwanzaa reminds us that a Scout's light shines brightest when we build bridges - working side by side to make the world better for everyone.
