Girl Scouts discover who they are, tap into the power inside them, and build the confidence to let it shine.
Through programs from coast to coast and overseas, girls of all backgrounds and abilities come as they are and create their own paths. Each step becomes a part of the journey, and along the way, they explore their passions, develop hands-on skills, and discover the tools they need to lead with joy, on their own terms.
Challenges don’t stop Girl Scouts. They discover their strengths in science labs and on hiking trails, at cookie booths and in front of city councils. Backed by volunteers, mentors, and millions of alums, they are part of a lifelong sisterhood of powerful change-makers who are always on their side.
Girl Scouts. Because the world deserves to see their full potential—and they deserve to experience it.
The first troop was founded in Boulder City, Nevada in 1932.

These aren't just words Girl Scouts say, they're words we live by. Girl Scouts uphold the Promise and Law in everything they do. Often recited at the start of a troop meeting or gathering, the Girl Scout Promise and Law remind us to be honest, to help people at all times, and to make the world a better place.
