There are people in your town who love to learn new things. They look up at the sky and down in the dirt, they talk to their parents and grandparents about the past, and use the latest technology to guess the future. They travel to places near and far. They make art and music and food; they dance and play and sing.
There are people in your town who come together to learn about themselves and each other. They work as one team to solve problems and meet challenges. They are there for one another when times are tough and celebrate their successes. They accept everyone, regardless of race, color, status, or creed. They are leaders and role models. They promise to help people at all times.
There are people in your town who work for change. They collect food for the hungry and clothes for the cold. They clean their neighborhoods after a storm, and clear trails in parks. They visit nursing homes and they help children learn to read. They care for the environment and always leave a place cleaner than they found it.
What do these people have in common?
They are all Girl Scouts, and they want YOU to join them. |
