Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Children & Youth, Girl Scouts of the U.S.A.
Mission: Girl scouting builds girls of courage, confidence and character who make the world a better place.
Programs: The girl scout program can change the way girls see the world and their place in it. Girls learn the importance of personal responsibility, the value of goal setting, the spirit of teamwork, and the thrill of accomplishment. The girl scout program is based on the girl scout promise and law and four fundamental goals that encourage girls to: 1) develop to their full potential; 2) relate to others with increasing understanding, skill and respect; 3) develop values to guide their actions and to provide the foundation for sound decision-making; and 4) contribute to the improvement of society through the use of their abilities and leadership skills, working in cooperation with others. Through a working partnership with adult leaders and advisors, girl scouts encourages girls to develop qualities of responsible citizenship, cross-cultural understanding, service to the community and to her own religion, as well as positive interaction with family and friends. These are used to laying a foundation for responsible action as women.
