You Have What it Takes to Be a Girl Scout Volunteer

Just by being yourself, you can be a person that girls can count on—the one who listens intently, who encourages them to chase their goals, who keeps them laughing, and who helps them feel confident in who they are. Together, you’ll build a community where every girl is celebrated and valued. 

You don't have to have a child of your own to get involved; all you need is a passion for mentoring the next generation of leaders. GSSI is ready to get you started!

Ways to Volunteer

As a Troop Volunteer, you can share your expertise during a special event, chaperone an exciting outing, or help Girl Scouts explore endless possibilities as a troop co-leader. No matter where or how you volunteer, you’ll make a difference in the lives of girls!

Service Units are communities of volunteers in a region who come together to lend support, share resources, and plan events for local Girl Scouts. Our council covers 11 counties and relies on dedicated volunteers to make a local impact. From hosting a cookie cupboard to planning a special event to hosting a day camp, Service Unit Volunteers make our Movement strong.
