With the pandemic on-going, Girls Scouts says less troops will be out in the community.
“With fewer troops and girls participating this year, we are at-risk for being able to continue all of our program events, maintain summer camp facilities and support for volunteers. Every box of Girl Scout Cookies goes toward making those services possible,” said Jenny Jones, Chief Community Engagement Officer for the council. “The Girl Scout Cookie Program is a nationally recognized brand that does big things for local girls.”
Though eating the cookies themselves is a treat, Melanie Schild, CEO Girl Scouts Heart of the South, says other great things can come from by buying the cookies.
