Girl Scouts Give Patch Program
We believe Girl Scouting is for every girl, regardless of her circumstances or her family’s financial situation.
The purpose of the Girl Scouts Give patch program is to help you understand the importance of supporting your Girl Scout sisters through investments of your time, talent, and treasure
Girl Scouts learn:
Ways to be a philanthropist
How to be a sister to every Girl Scout
Why donating to Girl Scouts is important
How to use things you’re doing every day to create good in their community
The Girl Scouts Give patch program is open to all Girl Scout grade levels–Daisy through Ambassador.

Experiencing
the outdoors thanks to the Joyce Seymour Leadership Fund
Every Girl Scout should be able to make lasting memories at summer camp. Financial assistance is available to ensure the same access to outdoor opportunities for all. This commitment to providing the leadership opportunities from camp experiences is made possible by the Joyce Seymour Leadership Fund.
“The girls had an AMAZING time! It was the highlight of their summer: first time sleeping in a tent and first time canoeing. They made friends, and they just loved it. “
"I loved making friends. I got to stay at camp a whole week.”
“Trusting people is hard for me. Camp made me feel safe outside of my home. I learned to trust others."

Spring into giving with GSK!
Girls who participate in Girl Scouts exhibit numerous positive outcomes, including increased confidence, teamwork and relationship-building skills, and improved grades and engagement in school.
Likewise, Girl Scout alums credit their experience in Girl Scouting as part of what has motivated them to pursue leadership roles and become involved in volunteerism, community, and civic endeavors.
Girl Scouts of Kentuckiana would like to ask for your support as we continue to provide girls with girl-led, girl-only programming in the core areas of STEM, the outdoors, life skills, and entrepreneurship.
