Fall 2019 Inspire Discovery

Community Service Girls who engage in community service develop a strong sense of responsibility for others. Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri provides girls with opportunities to serve, to connect with their communities and to reflect on their experience to better understand themselves, area needs and their role in making the world a better place. Through participation in programs like Seasons of Giving and April Showers or by earning the Girl Scout Bronze, Silver or Gold Award, girls are making a difference in their community each day.

Seasons of Giving

Girl Scouts make an impact through Seasons of Giving, which encourages girls to

participate in service activities. Girl Scouts have the option of making gifts, contributing useful items or providing service to agencies of their choosing. Troops can contact their Neighborhood Service Team for more information about service program agencies in

their area or view a list of agencies online at girlscoutsem.org/communityservice.

April Showers

April Showers, Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri’s largest community service program, is important to the Girl Scout program and the community at large. Girl Scouts, their troop leaders, families and friends help people in need by collecting personal care items.
