The mission of Girl Scouts is to build girls of courage, confidence, and character who make the world a better place. Girl Scouts is building a pipeline of strong, confident girls. It fosters a strong sense of self, helping girls develop the confidence to know they can do anything they put their minds to. Through programming that focuses on life skills, STEM, entrepreneurship, and the outdoors, Girl Scouts helps girls become their best selves, no matter what they are passionate about.
