World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts

Girl Scouts is a program and community for young girls. The Girl, in Girl Scouts, stands for Go-getter, Innovative, Risk-taker, Leader™. I believe in all of these things. I think this organization is a great opportunity for girls to become confident with themselves, learn to be kind and selfless and learn to be a leader. I have been a Girl Scout for a long time now, and am working on my silver award. I feel that all girls should have the ability to be a Girl Scout and learn how to make the world a better place. Girl Scouts is a program for girls from grades Kindergarten through 12th. There are many levels in Girl Scouts, based on age: Daisy, Brownie, Junior, Cadette, Senior and Ambassador. Girl Scouts strives to make girls brave, strong, confident,…

For the last nine years of my life I have been an active member of Girl Scouts. After beginning as a timid, socially delayed, six year old a lot has changed and allotted growth in many aspects of my life. Though I was not necessarily thrilled when my mother forced me to attend my first official meeting at the local elementary school, I fail to see how I could possibly be the same person had I not gone through with Girl Scouts. This program has always brought out and harnessed my intentions of…

Girl Scouts has been an important part of my life since I can remember. Girl Scouts helped me to learn to be practical, independent, strong, and most importantly, a leader. Put simply, Girl Scouts has molded me into the extremely driven person I am today. So you can imagine the shock and dismay I felt when my troop disbanded earlier this year. Though we were all members of the highest level of Girl Scouts as a girl could be, I thought the troop would remain intact until I went to college. I…

Girl scouts When i was about 8, i'd been forced to join the girl scouts against my many misgivings to have something to do for the summer. I'm not much of a people person and i don’t like working in groups especially because i felt that the older girls were mean and the girls my age or younger were annoying. But i stayed for two years and it wasn't all bad on occasion we’d have fun and i didn't have to try too hard with cookies sales because my mother and grandma always took it upon themselves…

Theoretical Foundation As an organization the Girl Scouts of Western Washington are concerned about their diversity, because their organization is not incredibly diverse, they are not serving all of the populations that they could. Participation in the Girl Scouts can be life changing for some, for instance more women who are politicians, CEOs, congresswomen, astronauts, and other leaders in the US were scouts than who were not (Chávez, 2016). The Girl Scouts’ main goal is to empower, educated,…

on what Girl Scouts does for you. If you were to ask others what it means to them, you would probably get a very similar response. Girl Scouting has affected me and my family in a very direct way. I am so grateful for Girl Scouts and the person it has made me today. Throughout the thirteen years of being in Girl Scouts, I have learned how much the program means to me. If I was not a Girl Scout I would not have received all of the opportunities that I have gotten through the years, such as…

than Dale Carnegie. He constantly improved and refined his methods of teaching; he updated his book on Effective Speaking several times. Had he lived longer, he himself would have revised How to Win Friends and Influence People to better reflect the changes that have taken place in the world since the thirties. Many of the names of prominent people in the book, well known at the time of first publication, are no longer recognized by many of today’s readers. Certain examples and phrases seem as…
