Financial Assistance toggle arrow

GSSEM offers financial assistance for membership, events, and programs.

Notes about financial assistance:

  • Girls using GSSEM's financial assistance to renew their memberships do not count toward the troop's renewal percentage. Financial assistance is primarily meant for members registering for the first time. Troops should include membership costs when goal setting with girls before the Fall Product and/or Cookie Program. Troops are encouraged to use troop funds to renew Girl Scout memberships each year.
  • Returning members requesting financial assistance for renewal will have to pay a portion of the membership cost. Parents will pay $25 out of the $45 membership fee for girls.
  • Please email troopsupport@gssem.org for questions or to inquire about the availability of grant funds in your area.

Initial orders include girls' order submissions to eBudde before the deadline and don't include donated cookies or orders shipped by Digital Cookie.

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting Login Issues toggle arrow

Why isn’t my username working?
Your username is typically your email address. If you have more than one email address, try each. You can also use the “Forgot Your Password?” link to send a reset email to your email address. If you’re still having trouble, contact our Customer Care team.

Why am I not receiving the password reset emails?
The password reset emails come from gsusacustomercare@girlscouts.org, so please make sure it’s added to your safe senders' list. If you requested the reset email before marking our email address as safe, check your spam folder. If you’re still not receiving the email, contact our Customer Care team to verify that your username/email address is correct.

How do I reset my password when I no longer have access to the email address associated with my account?
Our Customer Care team can easily change your username/email address without requiring you to recreate your account. Contact us to get started.

Why can’t I see my family when I log in?
There are a couple of reasons this could happen:

  • Another adult family member may be listed as the preferred contact on the account. That person must log in to renew. Contact our Customer Care team if you’d like to be listed as your household’s preferred contact.
  • You may have a second or duplicate account with a different email address. Try a different username. If that works, be sure to contact our Customer Care team to merge the two accounts into one.

Why can’t I see my troop(s) when I log in?
There are several reasons this could happen:

  • Troops are listed on a separate tab from your family. If you have more than one troop, look for the pull-down menu to change between them.
  • Check your member profile to make sure you’re listed as a volunteer in the troop.
  • Not all troop volunteers can access the troop tab. Contact us to see which volunteer roles they allow to access the tab.
  • If your background check has expired, you may lose access until it is up-to-date.

Our Customer Care team can provide additional support.

Additional Support
  • Go to gsLearn from your account dashboard on MyGS.
  • Click "Content Library" on the left sidebar.
  • Search "My GS."
  • Select "465-Managing Your My GS Member Profile Short & Snappy."

You're also welcome to email customercare@gssem.org or call 800-482-6734, option 3, to reach a Customer Care team member.
