You're invited to join Girl Scouts!
Friendship. Adventures. Making a difference. It’s all here for her.
What is Girl Scouts?
Girl Scouts isn’t just a moment in her life, it’s a movement
dedicated to building girls of courage, confidence, and character who
make the world a better place.
Why do families love us?
Girl Scouts is a way of life that brings out the best in your
girl, even in the most challenging of times. While she’s learning
about STEM, the outdoors, entrepreneurship, and important life skills,
she’s discovering new ways to make your family and community stronger,
kinder, and better for everyone.
How does it work?
Groups of Girl Scouts, called troops, typically meet weekly or
bi-weekly for an hour or two. Guided by adult volunteers—often parents
and caregivers—girls select exciting hands-on activities and projects,
try new things, and cheer each other on. Together, they earn badges to
reflect their successes and show the world what they’re made of.
What’s the goal?
Making sure girls see and have opportunities to reach their
potential isn’t just about helping them earn better grades, make
better decisions, and lead happier lives (though it helps with those
things too!). It’s about creating a more fair, equal, and
compassionate world where every girl has a seat at the table and can
make her dreams come true. Check
out our values in the Girl Scout Promise and Law.
