While participating in the fall program this year, girls will set and achieve goals, improve their financial literacy, and learn about teamwork through activities based on this year’s theme, "What Can A Girl Do?"
Care to Give Community Service Project
Care to Give is a council sponsored service project benefiting our local communities.
Girls Scouts will offer its customers the option to purchase "virtual" nut and candy products for $5 each to be donated to local non-profit organizations.
This year customers may choose to donate these products to the military or a local food bank. Girl Scouts of Northern California's council offices will make the arrangements to have the items delivered to the appropriate organizations.
