Join Girl Scouts as a Volunteer to Inspire Tomorrow’s Leaders
By: Donna Ceravolo, CEO of Girl Scouts of Nassau County
Whether you have a
daughter, sister, niece, granddaughter, cousin or just a great friend, the girl
in your life needs Girl Scouting and Girl Scouts of Nassau County needs you! For every Troop, there a needs for a
Troop leader, a volunteer, a role model for each and every Daisy, Brownie,
Junior, Cadet, Senior and Ambassador from whom to learn new skills and learn
something special about themselves.
Girl Scout volunteers
open up doors that will shape the lives of dozens of girls at a time. Whether
you’re a man or woman with — or without — scouting experience, there’s always
room for more volunteers.
At Girl Scouts of
Nassau County we serve approximately 20,000 girls in Nassau County. Each girl learns,
explores and make strides — all with friends by her side. The moment when a
Girl Scout tries something new, anything from robotics to business management, can
be the moment she discovers something amazing about herself. We want to reach
more girls than ever before, but in order to do that, we need more
volunteers.
All that matters is the
desire to be a part of helping girls grow to become women of courage,
confidence and character. Ninety-four percent of Girl Scout Volunteers and
ninety-seven percent of members believe Girl Scouts provides them with new, fun
and exciting experiences. With tons of girls searching for a Troop in
their community, you can be the one to make the difference!
I urge the community,
including mothers, fathers, college students and anyone who has an interest in
participating to consider volunteering as a Troop Leader and joining over 7,000
adult members of GSNC who are making a significant difference in the lives of
young women every day.
Troop Leaders are a quintessential
part of our organization. By volunteering as a Troop Leader, you are given the
ability to change a life. GSNC provides girls with a place to build confidence,
learn and have fun with their peers, and it also provides Troop Leaders with
the opportunity to share an unforgettable time with their daughter, neighbors
and the community while making connections with other like-minded volunteers.
Above all else,
remember, time as a Girl Scout will be a positive part of thousands of girls’
lives. They will carry these memories with them forever, and you could be the
one that makes it happen, the one who helps us build the confidence and
character of the next generations of amazing young women. Share the memories
with your daughter; it’s a chance to bond, teach and learn together.
Let’s get more girls in our community exploring, imagining and
realizing their own unique gifts. To join or volunteer, please visit our
