The Cookie Program is a fun and easy way for Girl Scouts to earn and learn!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Girl Scout Cookie Program is an important (and fun!) part of the overall Girl Scout experience teaching Girl Scouts five essential skills: goal setting, money management, people skills, decision making and business ethics. Every Girl Scout is encouraged to participate in the Cookie Program, even if they are not affiliated with a troop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Girl Scout Cookie Program is the largest girl-led business in the country and an integral part of our Girl Scout Leadership Experience. With every cookie season, Girl Scouts build confidence and learn skills that will help them succeed now and throughout their life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
