In-Person Selling during Hero Month
Support essential workers in two ways - do one or do both!
When collecting donations for essential workers outside of Digital Cookie, you will want to:
-
Collect donations for the council initiative: Ensure girls collect the $4 contributions per box that you will log in eBudde under the S4M column. The troop earns proceeds, girls earn rewards and GSGATL handles the delivery to the council’s partnering organizations for distribution to essential workers - there is nothing for the troop to deliver!
-
Collect donations for the troop's chosen hero group: Decide as a troop who and where the troop would like to donate cookies. Collect the money for these donations and use your troop’s inventory to make your contactless delivery to your chosen cause. Note: These cookies should not be logged in the S4M column in eBudde since you are using your current inventory, simply provide girls with standard box credit.
Note: Beginning March 1, boxes logged in the S4M column of eBudde will allow girls to earn this special Hero Patch and will continue to allow girls to earn the S4M reward items featured on the order card.
Need inspiration? You could donate to the teachers at your school, employees at your local grocery store, firefighters in your county, post office workers, nurses and doctors at your local hospital or clinic, and more!
Looking for patches? If you want to give girls a patch for your troop’s donation initiative – check out the great selection of patches online at: girlscoutshop.com or at the Mableton Badge & Sash Store. |
