Boy Scout Billionaire Donates $25 Million for 10,600-Acre Park

Jim Justice has fond memories of exploring West Virginia as a Cub and Boy Scout. The chief executive officer of Justice Family Group LLC announced a $25 million gift to the Boy Scouts of America, the largest single philanthropic donation he has made.

The money will support the creation of the Summit Bechtel Family National Scout Reserve, a 10,600-acre park near his home in Lewisburg, W.V., that will host the organization’s 2013 National Scout Jamboree.
