Girl Scout
Leadership Experience Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta is one of the largest youth serving nonprofit organizations in the state of Georgia, serving nearly 41,000 girls. We surveyed a cross section of girls to measure the impact Girl Scouts has on their lives. The results were impressive, all because of the Girl Scout Leadership Experience.

“I love archery and canoeing. I would not have tried those things anywhere else. I felt pretty brave!”
“Being in Girl Scouts has been like being part of a large family where we help each other and other people.”
“I really enjoy that my troop can make our own decisions that will benefit us and our community together.”
Girl Scouts of all ages have fun, make new friends, and try new things. The Girl Scout Research Institute has found that Girl Scout activities help girls develop confidence and leadership skills, which help them do well in school and set them on the path to being contributing citizens in our communities. In addition to badges and troop activities that cross a broad spectrum of interests, girls participate in innovative programming in a number of focus areas that help them to develop lifelong values and skills that prepare them for success in college, career, and life.

innovator go-getter
Troop 2649
This troop showed what some amazing young Girl Scouts can accomplish. These fourth and fifth grade Girl Scout Junior gogetters earned their Girl Scout Bronze Awards and the council’s Young Women of Distinction recognition for their Agent of Change Take Action project. As part of their project, they worked with a local senior center to supply each resident with a dry erase board, so they could communicate with staff and family. This was especially helpful for seniors who have verbal challenges. The troop hopes the seniors will use these boards every day and that this idea can be done at other centers. The troop also built birdhouses for the center’s outdoor garden area. All the money for the project was funded by proceeds from their Girl Scout Cookie sales. The project showed that something small can make a big impact in someone else’s life.

Maya Aravapalli
Brittany, a Girl Scout Juliette, received the Women in Technology (WIT) 2016 Girl of the Year Award. This annual award recognizes a girl who shows a strong interest in science, technology, engineering, or math (STEM) and who has been fully engaged in one or more WIT programs in 2016. Brittany’s interest in robotics originated through Girl Scouts when she volunteered for a STEM event. She started in First Lego League, a robotics program for girls and boys. She also participated in the First Technical Challenge and the First Robotics Challenge, two competitions where students code robots. She knew at an early age that she wanted to be a neurosurgeon and work in biomedical technology. Her ultimate dream is to contribute to the cure for multiple sclerosis (MS) through the use of biomedical engineering. Brittany is working on her Girl Scout Gold Award and her project involves developing a mobile app for MS patients.
Troop 25309
leader Nationally, only 5.4% of eligible girls complete the rigorous requirements to receive the prestigious Girl Scout Gold Award, which takes one to two years and at least 80 project hours to complete. It is exceedingly rare for an entire troop to earn it, but Girl Scout Troop 25309 achieved this incredible milestone together. Their projects range from environmental to human service and include:
Maya, a Girl Scout Ambassador, earned her Girl Scout Gold Award for providing desks and chairs for an entire school in India. In 2014, Maya volunteered at an underprivileged school near Bangalore, India.
Renovating a family space at the Pulaski Women’s Prison Children’s Visitation Center and creating a cooking center where moms and girls can learn to prepare food together,
“I noticed that the children did not have desks or chairs and sat on the floor all day,” said Maya. After researching, Maya created the “Booster Seat” project to provide desks and chairs to a school in rural India. With the help of her Girl Scout Troop, school, and the city of Milton, she raised $7,000 to provide 52 large desks and chairs for all 206 students at the school.
Assisting in the mental well-being of siblings of patients at the Ronald McDonald House, Developing an educational/support program for teen suicide prevention and awareness, and Working with the Haiti Deaf Academy to provide bilingual flash cards with corresponding hand signals to assist the deaf.
This risk-taker spent nine months and 181 hours of service bringing her big idea to fruition. Maya raised awareness of her project via Facebook and videos on YouTube that reached more than 17,000 viewers. 8

Spotlight Girl Scouts couldn’t do its job without the generous support of corporate community partners like Peach State Health Plan. In 2016 Peach State donated $20,000 to support Girl Scouts’ ongoing science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) programming, which ignites a girl’s natural curiosity, creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. The grant supports our award-winning robotics teams and the largest girl-focused STEM event in the Atlanta area. With Atlanta expecting to see double digit STEM career growth in the next five years, Girl Scouts and Peach State want to engage and inspire girls now with hands-on STEM learning.
