On this special day of global thoughtfulness and giving – you can make a lasting impact by investing in the future generation of girl leaders!
In a world that is constantly changing, girls are facing greater challenges than ever before. At Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson, we believe in every girl’s power to help make the world a better place. We are dedicated to seeing them achieve their greatest potential by helping them become girls of courage, confidence, and character through the Girl Scout experience.
Membership dues will be increasing next year, but we are committed to making certain every girl who wants to be a Girl Scout has that opportunity!
In preparation, we are establishing a very special “Friendship Fund” which will be available to ensure all girls who wish to be a Girl Scout have that opportunity!
You can help us establish the Friendship Fund with your Giving Tuesday gift. With your special gift, we affirm our promise of including every girl and continue championing them as today’s visionaries and tomorrow’s change-makers!
We also remain committed to making sure that our camps and Girl Scout Houses are safe havens where girls can explore, experience, meet new friends and enjoy new adventures on their journey to their dreams.
Below are highlights from the past year of what GSHH accomplished with the help of generous donors like you:
- Supported over 5,000 adult volunteers as partners providing leadership experiences to over 15,000 girls – empowering our girls to believe in their future, build their confidence and envision their dreams.
- Brought the Girl Scout Leadership Experience to over 800 girls in underserved communities throughout our Council via donor-funded, staff-led after-school and camp programs.
- Offered creative and impactful Council-led programming that kept older Scouts engaged and contributed to GSHH having among the highest number of girls in the nation earning their Gold and Silver Awards.
- Invested more than $750,000 in maintaining and upgrading our camps and Girl Scout houses.
Your gift makes a difference – whether you support the new Friendship Fund or one of your favorite camps – you are investing in today’s girls so they can then become tomorrow’s women leaders!
