2026-2027 Inspire Discovery

All registered Girl Scouts are expected to participate in April Showers through door-to-door distribution or donation collection. Showering the Community is an additional opportunity for Girl Scouts to make an even bigger impact on our community. District and Neighborhood events scheduled for either weekend of April Showers should plan to incorporate April Showers as part of their event plans. Troops camping are expected to participate on the alternate weekend.

All participants will be able to request a free event patch through their April Showers Participation Form. Patches will be ordered after the campaign concludes and will then be mailed out to troop leaders. We encourage families and friends to participate, too! April Showers is a great community service project for the whole family. Together, we can help empower Girl Scouts to team up and make the world a better place. Members should be on the lookout for more information from their Neighborhood April Showers Coordinator after the first of the year.

COMMUNITY SERVICE PARTNERS

Community Service Partners provide Girl Scouts with meaningful opportunities to make a difference through service projects that address real community needs. By partnering with local organizations, Girl Scouts develop leadership skills, build empathy, and discover how even small actions can create powerful change. Organizations seeking volunteers will be featured through future publications and on our website, making it easy for troops to find their next service adventure.
