This honor was developed in cooperation with Adventist Community Services.


Investiture Achievement Overlap-Rangers: Many of the requirements of this honor form part of the requirements for Rangers. Requirement 1 must be done by Wilderness Rangers. Requirement 2 in the honor lines up with Ranger - Making Friends Requirement 1. Requirements 7, 8, and 9 line up with the Ranger - Serving Others requirements. If you are working on Ranger why not just finish this honor off and earn the patch.

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”.

Adventist Youth Honors Answer Book/Outreach/Serving Communities/ADRA. Some mistakenly believe that the D stands for Disaster, but while ADRA does respond to disasters, most of ADRA's programing is aimed at long term development projects designed to help populations improve their lives over the long term.

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.
