A Sweet Tradition with a Greater Purpose
The Girl Scout Cookie Program isn't just about satisfying your cravings; it's about empowering the next generation of leaders. “Launching into a new Girl Scout cookie season is like opening a door to endless possibilities for our girls and their troops,” said Mary Vitek, CEO of GSSJC.
Since its creation in 1917, the Girl Scout Cookie Program has grown into the world's largest girl-led business initiative. The program helps girls learn invaluable life skills like goal setting, decision-making, money management, and business ethics. Proceeds from cookie sales benefit local troop activities, maintain camp properties, and provide financial aid to underserved communities, ensuring that every girl can have access to these life-changing programs.
Why Buy Girl Scout Cookies?
When you buy Girl Scout cookies, you're not only satisfying your sweet tooth, but you're also supporting personal growth and development for the young entrepreneurs behind the booth. Your purchase helps these girls develop the confidence and skills needed to succeed in life and business.
