Powered by the Girl Scout Cookie Program. When a girl participates in the Girl Scout Cookie Program, she embarks on new adventures, builds essential life skills, and soars in confidence as she begins to unleash her inner leader and step up in powerful, everyday ways—when she finds the courage to speak up, when she says “yes” to a challenge, or when she reaches out to help a neighbor in need.
Support her success.

We’ve done our homework. We believe a child’s physical learning environment plays a vital role in helping educate the whole child, and teaching and learning shape the classroom, not vice versa. We’re proud to be creating spaces that facilitate collaboration, foster exploration, and encourage discovery.
That’s Innovation. That’s Hammond.
