What is Financial Assistance?
GSMISTS is committed to helping all girls participate in Girl Scouting regardless of their family's income.
Who can receive Financial Assistance?
Girls in grades K-12 who qualify can receive financial assistance for their first membership year in Girl Scouts.
Second Year Financial Assistance
A Girl Scout may receive Financial Assistance for a second year if:
Her join date gave her the opportunity to participate in just one program (Fall Treats & Reads or Cookie) during her first year, and she still meets the financial need requirements.
Note: Eligibility is based on her opportunity to participate, not on whether she actually did.
