Summer 2024 Younger Girl Mini Guide

Girl Scout Bronze Award

Bronze Award Spotlight

In 2023, University City Girl Scouts decided to organize a clothing drive to help those in need in their community to earn their Girl Scout Bronze Award. Molly Hoffman, Addie Mayes and Kiki Soucy, pictured above, partnered with RedBike Outreach to provide gently-used clothing to local families. After meeting with two local churches to present their project, these young changemakers worked with them to host a clothing drive at both locations. The Girl Scouts set up collection bins, wrote bulletin notices and created yard signs to promote the drive. They also provided lists of donated items most needed and information about RedBike Outreach. Once all donations were collected, the girls sorted everything by gender, size and type of clothing and delivered the items. “The Girl Scout Bronze Award helps make the world a better place,” said Molly Hoffman. “We wanted to help people in our community who needed clothes. It was fun to earn one of the highest awards in Girl Scouts and a good goal to organize and execute.”
