Program
Girl scouts is the nation's premiere leadership development
Girl scouts is the nation's premiere leadership development program for girls from all cultures, zip codes and walks of life. The challenges girls face today are greater than ever and they affect all girls. There is evidence that girls are backing down and opting out of leadership positions. A recent report from the girl scout research institute showed that a girl's desire to lead is strongest when she is eight years old, yet declines dramatically when she is 16. With school funding continuing to decline, girl scouting provides expanded leadership and learning opportunities for girls in areas that fill critical talent gaps like finance, science, technology, and the environment. Additionally the girl scout cookie sale program is the nation's largest business and financial skills development program for girls.
