Girl Scout Program Goals
Develop to their full potential.
Relate to others with increasing
understanding, skill, and respect.
Develop a meaningful set of
values to guide their
actions and to provide for a
sound decision making.
Contribute to the improvement
of society.
On my honor I will try:
To serve God and my country,
to help people at all times
and to live by the Girl Scout Law
Girl Scouts is a
unique, girl-only place where a girl finds:
Courage by exploring new
adventures
Confidence
by
discovering her abilities
Character by shaping
her values
Connections
through
her friendships with other girls
The Girl Scout Law
I
will do my best to be
honest and fair,
friendly and helpful,
considerate and caring,
courageous and strong, and
responsible for what I say and do,
and to respect myself and others,
respect authority,
use resources wisely,
make the world a better place, and
be a sister to every Girl Scout.
Did You Know ...
Did you know that for every 100 girls who join Girl Scouting . . .
Four will earn the Girl Scout Gold Award--the highest award for girls.
Twelve will have their first contact with a church.
Five will earn their church religious award.
Only rarely will one be brought before juvenile court.
One will enter the clergy.
Eighteen will develop hobbies used during their adult life.
Eight will enter a vocation that was learned through the badge or patch program.
Seventeen will be future Girl Scout volunteers.
One will use her Girl Scouting skills to save a life.
One will use her Girl Scouting skills to save her own life.
That is a pretty good return on an investment in Girl Scouting!
The Girl Scouts believe that freedom of religion is a fundamental American right. The motivating force in Girl Scouting is a spiritual one; however, we do not attempt to dictate the form or style of a member's worship. Based on these beliefs, an individual member may use the word or words for "God" that best reflect her own spiritual beliefs.
