SCI Bell Family Blue Bag
In memory of Amy Bell
Humanitarian Services to people and communities worldwide is a major objective of the SCI Foundation. In 2015 the Bell family joined with the SCI Foundation in support of their Humanitarian Services program by making a major funding commitment to what is now known as the Bell Family Blue Bag – “Pay It Forward” initiative. It is the goal of this program to make a difference in the lives of those less fortunate throughout the world.
Pay it Forward
SCI Chapters, individual SCI members, church groups as well as groups of school children or scouts fill these Blue Bags with much needed school and medical supplies, clothes and food items as well as playground items for the children. The contents of these bags may include medical, educational, and other relief supplies, or clothing and toys. SCI members, fellow hunters and their friends, who are traveling to the hunting and safari destinations of the world, will take these Blue Bags and distribute these much needed items to children and families all over the globe. These “humanitarians”, with the support of their outfitters and friends, will deliver the contents of these bags directly to schools, clinics, churches, orphanages as well as to teachers, doctors, caregivers and mission workers to use in support of all those in need.
In memory of Amy Bell

Thank you so much! And thanks for all that Amy Bell Charities and Safari Club International Foundation does.
Earlier this month, the Faulkner family and fellow Texas hunters made a meaningful stop during their trip to South Africa, 🇿🇦 delivering Amy Bell Blue Bags to the students of Laerskool Tosca.
Each bag was packed with essential school supplies and sports gear, but more than that, it carried a message: "You are seen. You are supported. You matter." 🩷🩷
Thank you, Jenny Driver and Tori Klepac Faulkner, for paying it forward and leaving a bit of your heart in South Africa. The Bell Family Blue Bag Program continues to remind children around the world that they are seen, valued, and supported.

I left a great big piece of my heart and soul in Tosca. Can’t wait to go back- teach those smart cookies about our Texas!

Safari season is coming… don’t forget your Blue Bag! 💙✈️
The Amy Bell Blue Bag Program, in partnership with Safari Club International Foundation, allows hunters and travelers to deliver essential items—like school and medical supplies, soccer balls, hygiene kits, and sweets—to communities in need. A small act of kindness that makes a BIG impact.
Amy Bell was a courageous huntress, horsewoman, and philanthropist who passed away far too young at age 33. But her legacy lives on through this heartfelt initiative that helps spread hope, joy, and compassion across the globe. 🌍
At this year’s Safari Club International Convention in Nashville, we picked up more Blue Bags for our upcoming safari—and had the honor of meeting Amy’s wonderful parents and the passionate team carrying her legacy forward. Truly inspiring.
So if you're heading out on safari—or traveling anywhere in the world where help is needed—ask about the Blue Bag Program. It’s free. It’s meaningful. And it’s one of the most rewarding souvenirs you’ll ever bring.
Friendly note: Pack soccer balls, not footballs! ⚽ (Rookie mistake. And no frisbees either…unless you're hoping they’ll be used as dinner plates along the Zambezi. True story.)

Thank you to the Enevold family (Mandy Enevold) and partners like Safari Club International Foundation and Matswani Safaris for making this meaningful visit to The Fold (New Road Missions Inc.) possible. From school supplies to soccer games, your kindness left a lasting impact, and gave the children something special to carry into their holidays. 🫶🏽🩷

It truly was our pleasure, we cannot wait to do it again. When we left our hearts felt full. I loved that my children were with me for this as well.
Well done folks 👍🏻👍🏻🇿🇦

Thank the Amy Bell Charities for all YOU do for the less fortunate of the world. I am happy to be a little part of it.
When you give back through local communities, the ripple effect is powerful.
From buying school supplies in Masoka to donating directly to a village school - this story is a reminder that supporting local economies uplifts entire regions. 💙
The most meaningful souvenirs aren’t the ones you take home - they’re the ones you leave behind. ❤️
Huge thanks to Sue Tidwell Coyle for sharing this powerful story of impact. 💙
