Spring Renewal

Spring Renewal ends on June 30! Finish strong by asking parents in your troops to make their annual donation to Girl Scouts.

When they donate before June 30, they will receive special Girl Scout goodies. This year’s gifts include the “You Make the Magic” Annual Fund patch, a magical color-changing pair of sunglasses, a bottle of magical color-changing nail polish, a Build-A-Bear experience at Badge and Sash, and a Girl Scout sleeping bag. The more you give, the more you get!

Resources to help you raise money during Spring Renewal are all available in this Google Drive folder. Items include a graphic featuring the Annual Fund incentives, sample email and social media language, and a one-sheeter with information about how donations help girls.

Troops can now symbolically adopt their favorite Girl Scout horse!

The Adopt a Horse program is back and it looks a little bit different than it has in the past. Troops make a $500 donation to symbolically adopt their favorite horse at Camp Meriwether or Camp Misty Mountain. They will receive an official adoption kit with a certificate, fact sheet, photo, Adopt a Horse patch, horse swag, and a voucher for a discount on the camp program of their choice.

This is a great program to share with troops in your area. With a $500 troop donation, you can quickly make great progress towards your Service Unit Annual Fund goal for the year!
