Planned Giving | Girl Scouts of Southeastern Michigan

Share your legacy with future Girl Scouts.

As a planned giver, you'll be welcomed into the Juliette Gordon Low Society.

The first planned gift in the Girl Scout Movement came from our founder, Juliette Gordon Low. After converting the carriage house of her home into the first Girl Scout national headquarters, she gifted the property to Girl Scouts in her will. Continue her legacy and make Girl Scouts of Southeastern Michigan a beneficiary of your estate plans when you become a member of the Juliette Gordon Low Society.

For more information about planned giving, please reach out to our Development department at 313-870-2562 or development@gssem.org.

About Planned Giving

Planned giving—also called gift planning or legacy giving—is a donor's contribution to an organization beyond their lifetime. Unlike a one-time or recurring gift, it's intended to be given in the future through a donor’s will or estate plan.
