Add A Girl Campaign : More Girls = More Fun!

The “Add A Girl” Campaign strives to share the wonderful world of Girl Scouting with more girls in our community! Girl Scout members invite non-registered friends, relatives, or gal pals to join the Girl Scouts. When a friend registers to be a Girl Scout member, both girls receive a special patch. There is also a prize drawing for all girls who invite and register a friend.

Dear Sisters Girl Scouts (from our sisters in Louisiana):
As you know, the Girl Scouts in Southeast Louisiana have been facing – and will continue to face – inordinate challenges. Some area girls are still missing family members or have lost treasured pets. Some of our girls’ families’ homes will have to be bulldozed as a result of the water and wind damage – or are months away from being inhabitable. Many girls have lost all of their possessions. Others have been displaced and are starting over, away from their lifelong friends, in a new school, in an unfamiliar location. Area families are facing unemployment, homelessness and a host of problems most thought they would never face. Read the rest of this letter, by clicking here.

Girl Scouts are “Scouting for Food”
