Girl Scouts in Middle Tennessee are learning important life lessons about goal setting, decision-making, money management, people skills, and business ethics as they take part in the 2019 Girl Scout Cookie Season.
The Girl Scout Cookie Program is the largest financial investment in girls annually in the United States and teaches entrepreneurship for the next generation of female leaders. Girls from kindergarten until 12th grade learn about developing a successful business and reaching their goals.
With 100% of the net proceeds staying local, Girl Scouts of Middle Tennessee (GSMIDTN) is able to do amazing things in the community. Girl Scouts can use their proceeds to attend summer camp or take part in exciting Girl Scout Programs. They also give back to the community by donating food to local food shelters, purchasing toys for animal shelters, or create essential bags for the homeless.
GSMIDTN is able to maintain camps and properties and reach girls in hard-to-serve areas with the help of the Girl Scout Cookie Program.
Girl Scout Cookie sales began on December 26 and you can find Girl Scout Cookie Booths near you from February 3 until March 3. Prices will range from $3.50 to $5 per box.
