What Girl Scout Parents Should Know About Girl Scout Cookies!
She Can't Do It Without YOU!!
Parents, thank-you so much for your support of Girl Scouts and the GS Cookie Program. Much more than a way to raise money, the Cookie program is a hands-on leadership and entrepreneurial program that helps equip girls with the experience and financial literacy tools that she will take with her into high school, college and beyond.
Hear from girls about the skills they learn.
All girls must turn in a signed Permission Form before they start taking Cookie orders. Form should be given to your
Troop Cookie Manager.
There's more to Girl Scout Cookies than What is in the Box!
Selling cookies teaches girls about goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills, and business ethics; skills which are essential to leadership, to success, and to life.
