Philippine Islands Council (Boy Scouts of America)

The Philippine Islands Council of the Boy Scouts of America #545 administered Boy Scouting activities in the Philippines from 1923 to 1937. In 1938, the Boy Scouts of the Philippines took over Scouting responsibility for Filipino boys, while the Philippine Islands Council of the Boy Scouts of America #802 held jurisdiction for American boys in the Philippines after 1937 until its disbandment in 1942 at the height of World War II. Since the end of the war, Boy Scouts of America in the Philippines have fallen under the Far East Council.
