Why Girl Scouts

More than ever, girls today are searching for a safe place to belong. They need a place where they can make a contribution-a place where they can participate as meaningful members of society. The Girl Scouts Redwood Falls Service Center provides a healthy alternative for girls who are searching for a place to belong.

Girl Scouting makes a Difference

• Two-thirds of the women in the United States Congress were Girl Scouts.
• 9 of 10 Cadette and Senior Girl Scouts in our council view their leaders as people they can admire and learn from.
• 84% of Junior Girl Scouts in our council feel that Girl Scout activities help them learn about people with backgrounds different from their own.
• In a recent national study, nearly two-thirds of women of achievement surveyed were Girl Scouts in their youth, compared to only 41% of American women overall.
• A majority of Girl Scouts of all ages feel that Girl Scouting provides more opportunities for leadership, service, and team building than school does.
• 7 of 10 Girl Scouts in a recent survey said they draw upon the Girl Scout Promise and Law in their daily lives.
