No, no one owns the BSA as a national organization.

The individual units; troops, packs, crews, and ships (depending on the specific scouting organization) are franchises that are owned by sponsoring organizations. These organizations can be any group concerned with youth development including schools, The Knights of Columbus, Rotary clubs, religious groups and others. About 2/3 are owned by religious groups.

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) are very active in the boyscout organization because they feel it is a great program for boys and a useful youth program for their organization.
