Vodafone Malta Foundation has recently supported a major scouting event, being the Jamboree held in August in Hylands Park in the UK, to celebrate the 100th anniversary of scouting. Vodafone Malta Foundation donated the necessary funds so that four Maltese scouts could participate in this once in a lifetime event.
The World Scout Jamboree offered participants a programme that enables them to develop all facets of their character.
The Programme proposed a wide variety of activities and also placed great importance on the way the young people take part, by offering them interaction and real participation in everyday life on their campsite. Objectives for the 2007 celebrations as agreed by the World Scout Committee were to celebrate 100 years of Scouting, to demonstrate the unity of World Scouting, to improve and promote the quality of Scouting, to promote peace, to demonstrate the unique value of Scouting, to provide enjoyable and beneficial experiences, to demonstrate a commitment to nature and the environment and to show concern for all communities.
