Cookies 2012
Thank you!

We want to thank all of our Girl Scouts, volunteers, parents and customers for making the 2012 Cookie Program a tremendous success! Because of your contributions we sold 2.9 million packages of Girl Scout cookies this year! The sale also brought in $2,185,392.70 in troop proceeds.

Gift of Caring

This year, 20,700 of the packages of Girl Scout cookies sold were donated to the council's Gift of Caring program. The Council Gift of Caring Program is a cookie donation opportunity for customers to buy a box of cookies to be distributed to our Gift of Caring Partners: St. Mary’s Food Bank Alliance, Arizona National Guard and USO Arizona. For more information on the Gift of Caring Program, click here. 

Troops have the option to participate in our council Gift of Caring program, or choose their own organization they would like to donate Girl Scout cookies to. Troop 612 of Ahwatukee donated cookies to military troops overseas and they received a special thank you message from some soldiers in Afghanistan! Equipped with pictures and a fun message, these soldiers shared just how thankful they were for the cookies donated through the Gift of Caring program. Click here to see it!

The Impact of the Cookie Sale

A portion of the money raised by the cookie sale goes directly to our local troops selling Girl Scout cookies. This allows troops to finance programs, goals and activities such as field trips, summer camp sessions and community service projects. The remaining portion of the money raised is used for a financial assistance program which allows Girl Scouting to be available to every girl in Arizona. Proceeds from the cookie sale also help recruit and train volunteers, maintain our camp properties and support Girl Scout programming.
