Girl Scout Seniors and Ambassadors: Do you want to make a difference in your community?  Do you have ideas on how to fix problems in your neighborhood? Do you want to leave a legacy of change that lasts long after you’ve left high school? You can do all of this by earning your Girl Scout Gold Award. Only 5.4% of Girl Scouts nationwide achieve this incredible honor, so take the challenge to join other incredible young women in pursing the Gold Award.

• Develop leadership skills in areas such as public speaking, managing a team, creating and following a plan and promoting your ideas.

• Make a positive, lasting change in your community.

• Apply for exclusive college scholarships only open to Girl Scout Gold Award recipients.

• Enter the military at a higher rank once you’ve earned your Girl Scout Gold Award.
