Girl Scouts Stands Against Racism

At Girl Scouts, we build girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place. In this moment of suffering in our nation, Girl Scouts commits to taking action to support black girls, their families, and their communities. We want to reiterate to all girls, volunteers, alums, supporters, families, and staff that we do not tolerate racial injustice and we know that Black Lives Matter. We will do our part to dismantle systemic racism. We recognize that this is far from easy or fast work, but we are Girl Scouts—we believe in sisterhood, justice, and fairness—so we are in it for the long haul. GSUSA is making an initial financial investment to partner with experts in their areas of race, inclusion, and equity, with a focus on girls and women. Change in these areas will permeate all levels of our organization, such as leadership, staff, volunteers, and—most importantly—our girls. To see more details on what changes GSUSA is committed to check out the Anti-Racism Pledge . When you’re there—you can sign the pledge and join the fight against racial injustice.

We are asking for all Girl Scouts—girls, volunteers, alums, supporters, and families— to commit to taking action to make the world a more equitable place.
