KICK OFF THE NEW YEAR THE RIGHT WAY!

Ready, set, go! The Fall Product Program sale is underway as of September 24, 2021! Before the long-anticipated cookie season arrives, Girl Scouts first partake in an annual fall program to earn troop startup funds for the new membership year! The Fall Product Program gives troops and individually registered members the chance to power a year full of fun activities by reaching out to friends and family and asking for their support through the purchase of nuts, chocolates, and magazines. The program is also a great way to fund needed uniforms and materials for a successful year. Most importantly, all proceeds stay in California’s Central Coast counties. There’s no better way to start off the Girl Scout year than to earn funds for FUN activities!

IN THE SPIRIT OF GIVING

Community members who are interested in supporting local Girl Scouts but would rather skip the sweets may also opt to donate products to local first responders or members of the military through the Care to Share Donation Program! This virtual sale is a way for girls to sell cookies, or nuts and candy, as a service project without having to handle or store the actual product. Proceeds from Care to Share donations still benefit Girl Scout troops and council, while also providing sweet treats to be included in care packages sent overseas or donated to our local police and fire stations. Customers can make a direct virtual donation at www.girlscoutsccc.org/caretoshare.
