Giving girls the tools they need to succeed in the future is one of the main goals of Girl Scouting. Through Girl Scout Product Programs, girls practice life skills such as goal setting, money management, decision making, and the satisfaction of a job well done!

Product Programs and the Leadership Experience
The Fall Product Program and Girl Scout Cookie® Sale Program are integral parts of Girl Scouting’s Leadership Experience and our Business and Economic Literacy initiative for girls. The programs provide finance, marketing and public speaking skills, along with valuable experiences that build girls’ self-confidence and help them develop their own personal leadership style.

By participating in Girl Scout Product Programs:

Girls Discover a strong sense of self, values, practical life skills, challenges, and critical thinking skills

Girls Connect when they build positive relationships, promote cooperation, resolve conflicts, advance diversity, and feel connected to their communities

Girls Take Action when they identify community needs, act as resourceful problem solvers, advocate, educate and inspire others to act, and feel empowered to make a difference

Just about everyone buys magazines and music CDs, and when they buy from Girl Scouts, it helps support local girls, troops and the entire organization. Nuts and chocolates are special treats offered by Girl Scouts just in time for the holidays!

You'd be surprised what a Girl Scout Cookie® can build: strong values, strong minds, strong bodies, strong spirit, strong friendships, strong skills, strong leadership, strong community! Through the Girl Scout Cookie Sale Program, girls build business and economic literacy skills. And unlike many youth programs, the Girl Scout Cookie® Sale Program empowers girls themselves to decide how to spend part of the proceeds.

Girls will be taking Girl Scout Cookie orders January 22-February 7, 2010. Click here for our 2010 Girl Scout Cookie® Sale Program website!
