What are the most immediate needs to support your organization?
There are many ways you can help Girl Scouts discover themselves, connect with others and take positive action in their communities. No matter how you support Girl Scouts, you’ll be changing the world, too. While Troop Leaders are always needed and make the biggest impact on the lives of girls, there are also short-term volunteer opportunities to help. Sponsoring our events or becoming a donor is also a way to support our organization.
