Supporting Military Families
From Massachusetts to California and Brazil to Beijing, Girl Scouts is proud to serve military families across our country and the world. Each day, we’re inspired by the sisterhood of military-connected girls and volunteers who live and breathe our Girl Scout Promise to serve our country and continue to make a difference (and have fun!) while doing it.
No matter where a family’s military service takes girls, Girl Scouts is at the ready with tried-and-true programming and a supportive network that allows girls to continue their unique leadership journeys; build new friendships; and enjoy a reliable, safe space of their own.
Our military men and women—and their families—continue to set a stunning example living lives of courage, confidence and character that make the world a better place.
Girl Scouts can earn exclusive VFW scholarships.
Girls from military families are encouraged to apply for the VFW scholarships that are open exlusively to Girl Scouts, as well as other merit-based and interest-based scholarships.
We honor military families for their civic engagement.
Every girl has a voice. Every girl’s voice is important. Learn how Girl Scouts prepares the next generation of leaders through National Service Projects.
Girl Scouts: Serving Military Families Where They Serve
“As a military family making moves across the country, it can be overwhelming figuring out the ins and outs of living in a new community. Girl Scouts welcomes us in each new place with a sense of normalcy and consistency when everything else is changing. I’m grateful that Girl Scouts has been there, and not only for my child, but for me, too! Some of the best friends I’ve made in each state we’ve lived, I met while volunteering for Girl Scouts.”
– Kim Dodson
