At Girl Scouts, we envision a world where girls are confident, understand their worth, and have the skills to thrive. Every badge or patch they earn; each outdoor adventure, entrepreneurial experience, and Take Action project leads them to discover their interests, builds their self-confidence, and become agents of change. Girl Scouts are life-ready – for today and tomorrow.

The people and programs make a difference in the lives of girls. Some highlights from 2024:

• Opened the first fully accessible zipline at our Meadow Mountain Ranch property. More than 10 years in the making, this effort was initiated by the GECCCOs troop in Northern Colorado to honor their troop member who passed away.

• The Girl Scouts of Colorado Cookie Program ranked No. 3 in the nation.

• Secured our first funded partner for the Highest Awards program.

• Held the most successful Women of Distinction series of fundraising events in terms of attendance and dollars raised.

• Launched a new ecommerce site to improve customer service and retain proceeds for Girl Scouts in Colorado.

• Initiated a teacher-led troop model in Aurora with a private donor and are now able to continue expanding this model thanks to additional funding received as part of a national pilot program hosted through GSUSA.

• Developed Cert-a-thons, outdoor skills focused trainings for adult volunteers, meeting a great need and well-received by volunteers.

• Continued efforts to diversity funding and raised $1.6 million from donors, foundations, and partnerships.

These are just a few of the successes because the real achievements lie in the leadership growth and accomplishments of the 15,204 youth members and the 6,408 adult volunteers who guide them on their leadership journey.
