Help Girl Scouts be their best selves this year.

It's always the right time to make a difference—and now is the perfect time to do that as a Girl Scout volunteer. Discover how good it feels to help Girl Scouts find their voice.

Just by being yourself, you can be a person that girls can count on—the one who listens intently, who encourages them to chase their goals, who keeps them laughing, and who helps them feel confident in who they are. Together, you’ll  build a community where every girl is celebrated and valued. 

You don't have to have a child of your own to get involved; all you need is a passion for mentoring the next generation of leaders. Girl Scouts Louisiana East is ready to get you started!

*Girl Scout membership must be renewed annually. Membership year is October 1–September 30.
