The Rock
Foundation is chartered by the State of Ohio as a non-profit organization
and qualifies for exemption under Sections 501(a) and 501(c)(3)
of the Internal Revenue Code. Thus contributions, gifts and bequests to
The Rock Foundation are tax deductible. A copy of the determination letter

The Rock Foundation
is not directly affiliated with the Boy Scouts of America, but serves for
the direct support thereof. All disbursements from or by The Rock
Foundation are for the direct benefit of the camp and Scouting activities
thereon.
Founded in early
2000 to support facilities and Scouting activities at Camp Falling Rock,
The Rock Foundation is pleased to accept contributions, not to replace the
normal operating budget provided by the Simon Kenton Council, but rather
to provide enhancements to facilities, equipment, or activities not
otherwise covered by the Councils limited budget. Non-cash contributions,
such as equipment or real estate, may be accepted subject to approval by
the trustees and the Camp Properties Committee.
