The Girl Scouts of Nassau County's Mags&Munchies...and More Program is a fun, quick, and easy way for Girl Scout Troops to earn money for projects, trips, girl programs and so much more. It's easy to earn start-up funds for your Troop! A Troop of 10 girls can easily earn from $200 to over $1000! The key to success is for each girl to participate.
By purchasing nuts, snacks, magazines, candles, tumblers, and greeting cards; families and friends can support Girl Scout Troops and Girl Scouting in our community.
Okay Junior Troops and older, it’s time for you to take a Troop vote… Does your Troop want to earn the Girl Rewards or opt out in favor of higher Troop proceeds? Many older girl Troops vote for more money to fund a big trip or service project. The opt-out form is available on the GSNC's Online Community (OLC).
Should your Girl Scouts opt to earn the girl rewards, your girls will have the opportunity to earn an assortment of fun, girl chosen rewards.
Troop Manager Training
All Troop Managers need to attend a Mags&Munchies training this Fall. Mags&Munchies Service Unit Chairs will be hosting trainings in their communities for Troop Mags&Munchies Managers in August and September.
New to Mags&Munchies Workshop
If you're a volunteer who has never experienced the Mags&Munchies Program before, you might want to register for the upcoming NEW TO MAGS&MUNCHIES workshops held at the Council Service Center.
From October 12 through November 16 troops can hold booth sales to earn even more money.
Having a Mags&Munchies booth sale with your troop can be as easy as contacting your local supermarket, recreation facility or other business in your community and asking about setting up a troop booth sale table.
You can find all of the details about Mags&Munchies Booth Sales on GSNC’s Online Community (OLC).
Going the Extra Mile
To earn extra money at your booth sale bring an Operation: Stop Hunger or Project: Thank You donation box or donation can. Customers who want to support Girl Scouts, but don’t want to make a purchase can donate money to either cause. Artwork for Operation: Stop Hunger and Project Thank You Donation Boxes can be found in GSNC’s Online Community (OLC).
All volunteer forms and documents, including the Troop Manager’s Manual, will be posted on GSNC’s Online Community (OLC).
