April Our Promise

We’re Better Together

Here’s how YOU can help:

Volunteers, members, staff, community partners— we’re better together! Whether girls are earning a badge, building a robot, exploring the outdoors, or serving their community, they are growing with the support of mentors and friends who are cheering them on every step of the way—and YOU can help. We invite you to support Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri on Give STL Day, May 10, a 24-hour-online day of giving, sponsored by the St. Louis Community Foundation. When you make a gift in support of GSEM on Give STL Day, you are helping to remove financial barriers so that every girl in the region can experience the connection and supportive environment provided when she joins a local Girl Scout troop.

1. Make a gift of $10 or more in support of GSEM on May 10 at givestlday.org/girlscoutsem. 2. Create your own fundraiser through GSEM’s profile page at givestlday.org/girlscoutsem. 3. Share! Your passion for the mission of Girl Scouts has a large impact on those around you! Prize Hour! May 10, 3-4 pm Your gift will go further when you make a donation between 3-4 pm on May 10! Girl Scouts are hoping to LEAD the way and win the prize for the most unique donors (determined by email address) during this hour while also taking part in the power hour! Donations can be made at givestlday.org/girlscoutsem .

With sincerest appreciation and gratitude, we recognize those who made a memorial or tribute gift to Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri from November 1, 2022 to February 28, 2023. Memorial and Tribute Gifts
