Dear Girl Scout Family,   

 

It's a week for giving thanks. On behalf of the entire Girl Scout staff, may I extend a heartfelt thank you to...  

  

... every girl who makes the values of the Girl Scout Promise and Law a priority in her life;  

 

...  every family who invests in leadership programming through Girl Scouts;  

 

... every volunteer who welcomes, guides, and cares about each girl as her own.

 

Have a fantastic week, Girl Scouts!

Chief Executive Officer
