Democracy for Girl Scouts

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Girl Scouts Nation’s Capital

An informed and active electorate is essential to the success of a democracy. Service to country is part of the Girl Scout Promise. Girl Scouts helps the youth develop into resourceful and active citizens through education on civic responsibility. There are many types of elections and voting methods. Understanding the voting process at an early age can help Girl Scouts stay current on issues that are important to them. Come out to assist our Girl Scouts with helping them learn and understand about the state and national government, and voting. This event you are required to have a non-partisan approach.

Mission Statement

Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place. We seek to accomplish this by providing girls opportunities to develop their potential and have fun with their peers in a supportive, all-girl setting.

Description

Founded in 1912, Girl Scouts of the USA is the preeminent organization for girls with a current membership of 3.6 million girls and adults. Volunteers use their expertise, skills, interests, and life experience to shape fun and enriching leadership experiences for girls, and inspire them to reach their personal best. Volunteers help council staff facilitate the New Girl Scout Leadership Experience to girls through exciting program opportunities: leadership/self-esteem, financial literacy, travel, health/wellness, science, technology, engineering, and math. Volunteers choose from several flexible Pathways (the ways that girls and adults join Girl Scouting) that fit their lifestyles, including short-term or long-term service working either directly or indirectly with girls, and they can participate regionally, nationally, and internationally.
