  • What is the Girl Scout Gold Award?

    The Girl Scout Gold Award is the highest honor a girl can achieve in Girl Scouting. To earn this prestigious recognition, Girl Scouts in grades 9–12 must meet prerequisites that encompass leadership and skill development, career exploration, and self-assessment. They must also design, plan, implement, and evaluate a significant leadership project involving at least 80 hours of community service over four months or longer.

  • The Girl Scout Promise

    On my honor, I will try:
    To serve God* and my country, 
    To help people at all times,
    And to live by the Girl Scout Law.

    *Members may choose a substitute for the word "God" in accordance with their spiritual beliefs.

  • The Girl Scout Law

    I will do my best to be:
    honest and fair,
    friendly and helpful,
    considerate and caring,
    courageous and strong,
    and responsible for what I say and do,
    and to respect myself and others,
    respect authority, use resources wisely,
    make the world a better place,
    and be a sister to every Girl Scout.
