Top 5 reasons to volunteer for Girl Scouts by Katie S.
There are countless reasons to become a Girl Scout Volunteer.
I was challenged to list my top 5 reasons– so here they are for your reading
pleasure!
5. You Will Build Your Business Skills –
Did you know that Girl Scout Volunteers manage budgets, records, and bank
accounts, book meeting spaces and field trips, communicate on various social
media platforms, and coordinate the schedules of 12 or more girls? That’s why
so many of our Volunteers smartly include their volunteer position on their
resumes! 
4. You Will Spend Time in the Great Outdoors –
3. You Will Eat Delicious Cookies –
Nothing on earth tastes better than a Girl Scout Cookie.
Girl Scout Volunteers help girls become Cookie CEOs! The Girl Scout
Cookie Program is the largest girl-led business in the world. Through our
Cookie Program, Volunteers help Girls learn skills they will use throughout
life: goal setting, decision making, money management, business ethics, and
people skills. Helping girls become business women AND eating tasty cookies?
It’s a win-win!
2. You Will Make New Friends –
It’s well known that girls who participate in Girl Scouting
make lots of friends, but did you know that our Volunteers make friends too?
Volunteers work together as Co-Leaders, committee members, Service Team
members, and at programs and events. We even have events especially for
Volunteers like Oktoberfest and Expand Your
Horizons Leader Conference, where you get to meet leaders from all over
Nassau County!
1. You Will Make a Real Difference in the Life of a Girl –
This is what being a Girl Scout Volunteer is all about.
Volunteers truly build
girls of Courage, Confidence, and Character who make the world a better
place. At every Troop meeting, at every cookie booth sale, on every field trip
and campout, YOU will change girls’ lives, and they will change yours.
