The Girl Scouts strive to be the preeminent leadership development organization for girls. And with programs from coast to coast and across the globe, Girl Scouts offers every girl a chance to practice a lifetime of leadership, adventure, and success.
There are 2.5 million people involved: more than 1.7 million girls and 750,000 adults who believe in the power of every G.I.R.L. (Go-getter, Innovator, Risk-taker, Leader)™ to change the world.
This journey began more than 100 years ago with the original G.I.R.L., Juliette Gordon “Daisy” Low. On March 12, 1912, in Savannah, Georgia, she organized the very first Girl Scout troop, and every year since, the Girl Scouts have worked to honor her vision and legacy, building girls of courage, confidence, and character who make the world a better place.
At Girl Scouts, girls prepare for a lifetime of leadership, success, and adventure in a safe, no-limits place designed for and by girls through the Girl Scout Leadership Experience—a collection of engaging, challenging, and fun activities based on four areas that form the foundation of the Girl Scout Leadership Experience:
Being a Girl Scout helps girls thrive in five key ways:
• Develops a strong sense of self
• Displays positive values
• Seeks challenges and learns from setbacks
• Forms and maintains healthy relationships
• Learns to identify and solve problems in her community
