The annual Girl Scout Cookie Program is one of the largest youth-led and THE largest girl-led entrepreneurial programs in the world. It powers life-changing adventures, fun filled programs, and learning experiences for Girl Scouts and their troops all year long.
Our mission at Girl Scouts of Southern Appalachians is to build Girl Scouts of courage, confidence, and character who make the world a better place. The Girl Scout Cookie Program supports this mission by providing hands-on experience in setting goals, making business decisions, and embarking on a lifelong leadership journey.
The cookie program also provides an essential way for Girl Scouts to cover the cost of their Girl Scout experiences. Girl Scouts use cookie revenue to pay for membership dues, program supplies, and activities like travel, camp, and STEM exploration.
