Cookie Sales

COOKIES ARE COMING......

 In the winter/spring girls will be able to be a part of an exclusive experience. Only Girl Scouts can sell something that most people crave throughout the year…that’s right, Girl Scout cookies. We will be partnering with Little Brownie Bakers in a program entitled “Inspired by U” where Girl Scouts across the country will be inspiring change. They will discover what matters most, connect with people in their community and use the power of Girl Scout Cookies to take action and make the world a better place. 

Girl Scouts have been selling cookies for years as a way to raise money for troop activities. The tradition has become so popular that many people anxiously await Girl Scout cookie time.

The program's popularity doesn't end with consumers. Girls love selling Girl Scout cookies as well.

 

 

Benefits for Girls
For many girls, the Girl Scout cookie program is their first entrepreneurial venture and helps foster a sense of achievement that resonates far into the future. Girl Scout cookies are only sold for a few short weeks, but the benefits for girls last throughout their entire lives!
 
Many of today’s successful businesswomen credit their professional accomplishments to their early start in the Girl Scout Cookie Sale program. Because of this experience, they learned how to be members of a team, work toward a common goal, interact with customers in a professional manner, follow through on a commitment, and strive to do their best.
 
Selling cookies helps girls develop a wide range of skills, including:
·                             Leadership
·                             Money management
·                             Decision making
·                             Customer service
·                             Planning
·                             Goal setting
·                             Teamwork
·                             Public speaking
 
Cookie Impact
A portion of the money raised goes directly to local troops selling cookies, which allows troops to finance program goals and activities such as field trips, camp outings, and community service projects. The remainder is used to make Girl Scouting available to every girl in the area who would like to participate. Proceeds also help Girl Scouts of Southeastern Michigan recruit and train volunteers, maintain campgrounds, and support initiatives such as outreach, science activities, career workshops, and financial assistance
