A Scout is Kind

Kind: thoughtful, humanitarian.

Hartsook follows the philosophy of the Scout slogan to “do a good turn daily.” When providing fundraising guidance to our clients, we choose to offer the highest level of consideration and thoughtfulness day after day, year after year, decade after decade.
