Girl Scout Basics
Why choose Girl Scouts?
Girl Scouts' unique programs bring out the best in kids and help them become the confident leaders they were born to be. While they’re having fun and trying new things, they're also building important life skills, discovering the power of their voice, and learning to give back to their community.
How does it work?
Groups of Girl Scouts, called troops, typically meet once or twice per month for an hour or two. Guided by adult volunteers, troop members choose hands-on activities and projects that excite them. Troops are often formed around schools, neighborhoods, faith communities, or other social groups.
When can I get started?
Whenever you’re ready! Grades K-12 are welcome to join at any point in the year.
Is Girl Scouts affordable?
Financial aid is available for membership, programs, and camps. Additionally, girls may participate in Fall Product and Girl Scout Cookie Programs to practice their entrepreneurial skills while earning money to fund their Girl Scout experiences.
