Girl Scouting
Girl Scouts is the world's preeminent
organization dedicated solely to girls—all girls—where, in an accepting
and nurturing 
environment, girls build character and skills for success
in the real world.
In partnership with committed adults, girls develop qualities that will
serve them all their lives—like strong values, social conscience, and
conviction about their own potential and self-worth. In Girl Scouts,
girls discover
the fun, friendship, and power of girls together. Through the many enriching
experiences provided by Girl Scouts, they can grow courageous and
strong.
