Be ot camping, travel, developing entrepreneur skills through cookie sales or many of our programs, GGC gives girls unlimited opportunities to develop their skills, be successful, and develop friendships that last a lifetime.

There are so many possibilities! Your unit could go on an outdoor scavenger hunt, have a sleepover at a science museum, or plant a tree. Our dynamic programming offers plenty of opportunities for you and your fellow Guiders to be creative and ignite the minds of girls. What’s more, the Guiding sisterhood offers you the ability to meet like-minded women, hone your leadership skills and develop new ones, while receiving continuing training and opportunities to be an active member. Girl Guides is an organization with more than 105 years of history and a strong and growing future. Share your skills, your talents and yourself as a Girl Guide volunteer. Volunteer today! |
