The Asociación de Scouts del Ecuador, the national Scouting organization of Ecuador, was founded in 1920, and became a member of the World Organization of the Scout Movement in 1922. The coeducational Asociación de Scouts del Ecuador has 2,933 members as of 2008.cite web |title=Triennial Report 2005-2008 |url=http://scout.org/en/content/download/11615/94838/file/Triennial_Report_EN.pdf |publisher=World Organization of the Scout Movement |accessdate=2008-07-13]

Scouting first came to Ecuador in 1912, when Cristóbal Vela, a diplomat in France, learned about the Scouting program in England.Fact|date=February 2007 He introduced Scouting to boys in Quito which spread to other cities of the Highland Region, although they are less known in the Coast Region.

Scouting is a respected organization in Ecuador and has been declared an "institution useful for the public welfare" by the government. Service activities are part of the Scout program. Scouts are a welcome sight during Ecuador's frequent earthquakes, as they are well organized and most helpful.

In addition, the Scouts work with the Red Cross, helping in national disasters, community development, literacy campaigns and health campaigns.Fact|date=February 2007

In the early 1960s, Scouts were known to the citizens as the "khaki angels," although their current uniforms are grey and blue.Fact|date=February 2007
