Be Part of the Juliette Gordon Low Society

Born Juliette Magill Kinzie Gordon on October 31, 1860 in Savannah, Georgia, “Daisy,” as she was affectionately known, descended from a long line of strong and independent women. As we remember her on her birthday, her vision lives on in Girl Scouts across the nation and the globe who carry on her legacy. You can help ensure the future of the Girl Scout movement by becoming a member of the Juliette Gordon Low Society.

Making a planned gift can be very simple. You can name Girl Scouts of San Jacinto Council as a partial beneficiary in your will. You can opt to leave a flat amount or a percentage of a specific asset, and there is NO minimum requirement. And everyone who makes a planned gift to GSSJC is automatically a member of the Juliette Gordon Low Society. To make your planned gift intention known, contact Nancy Hall at nhall@ sjgs.org or 713-292-0282. You don't need to communicate to us the size of your gift. Every planned gift, no matter the amount, will have a positive impact on our girls, for generations to come.

Join the Women’s Leadership Network

The Women’s Leadership Network (WLN) is an affinity group for Girl Scout supporters whose commitment reflects their belief that when we invest in girls, they can change the world. These strong, connected women and men are passionate about supporting our future female leaders through the best female leadership program available – today’s Girl Scouts. Through their financial support, WLN members help girls in southeast Texas gain critical leadership and life skills so they can succeed at home, at school and in their communities - and as future female leaders in the workforce.

WLN members make personal annual gifts of at least $1,000. In appreciation for their support, WLN members receive special invitations to girl mentoring events, networking opportunities and other special events.
