It's February and LOVE is in the air! As a supporter of Girl Scouts, you send love to thousands of Girl Scouts all year!
Did you know that the Latin origin of the word "philanthropy" means love? When you make a gift to Girl Scouts, you're a philanthropist who's "loving wo-mankind!" What an amazing way to celebrate love this month. Thank you to all of you, our donors, who make Girl Scouts possible for girls. We thank you for LOVING and hope your month has been filled with joy and love. THANK YOU for all you do!

You Help Girls Share Love Through Service!
Girl Scouts are the very best at sharing love - just like you, the donors who make these programs possible!
Girl Scout Daisy Troop 1086 from Blue Springs, MO worked for weeks on special Valentine's Day cards for residents of the Benton House Assisted Living Facility. Girls from Troop 1086 and Troop 1081 delivered 70 valentines on Valentine's Day, spreading love in Blue Springs.
Because of you, girls are giving back and creating connections between the generations. Service projects like this teach girls about empathy and empowering their community. Thank you for being part of this mission of giving and love!

Alumna Donors Create a World of "YES" for Girls!
Claudia Boosman is a donor, First Class Girl Scout and former volunteer who invests where her heart is. Giving with big love is something you're probably familiar with because you give with love to empower girls, just like Claudia! As a girl, Girl Scouts helped Claudia feel the pride of running her own cookie business and discover a love of the outdoors. In a time when career options for women were limited, Claudia had a world of "YES!" in Girl Scouts. As the mother of twin girls, Claudia found even more reasons to love the program as a troop leader. Today, Claudia continues to invest in the program she loves.
Thanks to donors just like Claudia, Girl Scouts continues to provide a world of "YES" to girls.
