There’s more to Girl Scout cookies than
what’s in the box!
The Impact of the Girl Scout Cookie Program
There’s more to the annual Girl Scout cookie sale than a tasty treat. The skills and confidence girls build by participating in the cookie program is invaluable. When a Girl Scout sells you cookies, she’s doing more than just handing you a box. She’s creating a plan, interacting with customers, and working as part of a team. She’s building a lifetime of skills and confidence. Selling cookies teaches her goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills, and business ethics—aspects essential to leadership, to success, and to life. It empowers her with the strength, abilities, and the drive to become an accomplished woman who benefits herself, her family, and the world. The Girl Scout Cookie Program helps your daughter learn about leadership and business through real-world, hands-on experience. Your daughter’s experience in the Girl Scout Cookie Program is the foundation for developing skills that will benefit her for a lifetime. This year, we have set a sales goal of 3.2 million packages. Your encouragement and guidance are the keys to her success.
Sincerely,

New This Year
This year, you might notice something different when you purchase a box of Girl Scout cookies. We have new packaging! All Girl Scout cookie packages have been refreshed and updated to include stories of what Girl Scouts do today, the fun they have doing it, and all that girls learn from selling Girl Scout cookies! Even though our packaging may be new, your same favorite flavors: Thin Mints, Samoas, Tagalongs, Dosidos, Trefoils and Savannah Smiles are still inside each package!

Check out Girl Scouts in action!
Gift of Caring
The 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.
