This honor was developed in cooperation with Adventist Community Services.


Investiture Achievement Connection: This Honor is related to the Investiture Achievement requirements for RANGER Serving Others and RANGER Making Friends which require completion of Requirements #1, #2, #7, #8 and #9 of this Honor. If you are working on Ranger why not just finish this honor off and earn the patch.

2. Read Chapter 54 (titled “The Good Samaritan”) from The Desire of Ages by Ellen White and write a list of five key points in the chapter.

b. What is the name of the Adventist organization that serves those in need outside of the United States, Canada, and Bermuda? What kinds of services does it provide?

Outside the NAD, humanitarian services are provided by ADRA - Adventist Development and Relief Agency.

ADRA's work falls into six categories.

  • Protecting the vulnerable
  • Supporting families
  • Promoting health
  • Providing food and water
  • Establishing livelihoods
  • Responding to emergencies

4. What do the letters ADRA stand for? Give a brief explanation of each word represented, and explain the difference between “development” and “relief”.

5. What items are usually included in a personal hygiene kit?

The point of a personal hygene kit is to allow people to clean up and feel better after a disaster (fire, natural disaster) or when stranded (closed airport for example). Being clean helps people stay calm and civil to each other. Different organizations have different kits based on the specific needs and culture of the area the kits will be distributed and budget, but in general personal hygene kits will include:

  • Soap
  • Washcloth
  • toothbrush and toothpaste
  • razor
  • q tips
  • band aid strip
  • deodorant
  • a bag to hold the kit

6. Assemble a personal hygiene kit and donate it to Adventist Community Services, ADRA Canada, or a homeless shelter.

See list above. Why not make a few kits, or get together a group or the whole club and make kits together. As a minimum, each person participating should make a complete kit so 10 people should make at least 10 kits.

8. Plan a community service project with your Pathfinder unit or class and complete it.

It is a good idea to complete the Community Assessment or Identifying Community Needs honor first and then use the information you compile as a foundation for planning this project and others.
