Recognitions & Appreciation
Thank you, Girl Scout volunteers! Every day, our adult members bring girls experiences filled with fun, friendship and discovery. Our incredible and essential volunteers give their time to mentor girls, inspire them, and help them discover the world around them and the spark inside them. We encourage you to show your "Attitude of Gratitude" by taking a moment to recognize the volunteers who mean a lot to you — super troop leaders, terrific parent helpers, outstanding service unit team members and all the rest!
