Objectives of the Maccabee Award

  1. To arouse or heighten the Tiger Cub's awareness of things Jewish.
  2. To promote his identification with the Jewish people here and abroad.
  3. To stimulate the Tiger Cub to acquire important information and experiences aimed at leaving lasting Jewish knowledge, skills, and positive impressions.
  4. To lay a foundation of interest and achievement on which, in subsequent years of Scouting, the more intensive Aleph and Ner Tamid award programs can be built.
  5. To involve the families of Tiger Cubs as partners in the activities and experiences related to the award.
  6. To invite and involve the active cooperation and participation of local rabbis, Jewish educators, and Jewish group workers in this undertaking.
