Why Girl Scouts?

Who do you want the girl in your life to become?

Whether she is 5 or 17, you want her to become self-confident, strong and compassionate. You want her to respect herself and others, make good decisions, be open to new challenges, and use her skills and talents to make her world a better place. You want her to build strong friendships, be a leader, and put her values into practice in her everyday life.

You want her to become her best self.

Social pressure, image issues, and uncertain security – there are so many potential hurdles to girls' well-being. For nearly 100 years, Girl Scouts has been helping girls realize their full potential.

The Girl Scout program can change the way girls see the world and their place in it. In Girl Scouts, girls learn the importance of personal responsibility, the value of goal setting, the spirit of teamwork, and the thrill of accomplishment.
