We want to reach every girl everywhere. With your gift to Girl Scouting we can accomplish
just that. A gift to the Girl Scout Council of Colonial Coast is a gift for girls – one that
will help them realize their dreams and become tomorrow’s leaders. With your generous gift,
our Girl Scouts will grow into active and engaged members of our community and develop their
potential in business, sports, government, science, education, and the arts.
By making a gift to the Girl Scout Council of Colonial Coast, you enable us to make an
immediate difference in the lives of girls. Approximately 85
cents of every dollar you give goes
directly toward our
program
initiatives and helps girls throughout our Council grow strong.

Family Partnership
Make a contribution to the Family Partnership. Your gift helps offset the cost of offering our Girl Scout Leadership Development Program to one girl for one year in the Girl Scout Council of Colonial Coast. We require no other fees other than $10 for registration. Girls have boundless opportunities to develop the life skills they will use as adults in Girl Scouting. Through annual giving you can make the choice to give $25, $50, $100, $365 (a dollar a day) or more. The average cost to serve a girl in our Council per year is approximately $225. We don’t have set fees like other organizations, so please use this opportunity to give what you can.
