Q: Can I purchase Girl Scout cookiesŪ online?

A: For safety and security reasons, Girl Scouts of the USA's National Board of Directors adopted an online sales policy that reads in part:

"Sales on a Web site on the Internet* of any products sold in 'council-sponsored product sales,' such as Girl Scout cookiesŪ, candy, nuts, calendars or magazine subscriptions, may not be conducted by anyone at anytime."

Girl Scouts can use e-mail to let family and friends know they are selling cookies. We suggest you contact your local Girl Scout council (see How can I purchase Girl Scout cookiesŪ? for ways to locate it) and ask for specific guidelines.

The Girl Scout Promise

On my honor, I will try
To serve God and my country,
To help people at all times,
And to live by the Girl Scout Law.

The Girl Scout Law

I will do my best to be honest and fair, friendly and helpful, considerate and caring, courageous and strong, and responsible for what I say and do, and to respect myself and others, respect authority, use resources wisely, make the world a better place, and  be a sister to every Girl Scout.

Beginnings — 18 Girls

history2%20copy.jpg (10973 bytes)

Founded in 1912 in Savannah, Georgia, by visionary Juliette Gordon Low, Girl Scouts started with a membership of only 18 girls and a dream. Juliette, referred to as "Daisy," dreamed of giving the United States "something for all the girls." She envisioned an organization that would bring girls out of their cloistered home environments to serve in their communities and experience the open air. Within months, girl members were hiking through the woods in their knee-length blue uniforms, playing basketball in a curtained-off court, and going on camping trips.

Nurtured by Daisy's personal funding — she sold her extremely valuable necklace of rare matched pearls to finance operations in the early days — and her unique brand of enthusiasm, the Girl Scout movement attracted the attention of many talented, educated women and girls by providing an outlet for their abilities.
