Support Us: Give to Girls
When you donate to Indiana Lakeland Girl Scouts you are giving girls courage, confidence and character. Our program follows a girl-centric approach and organizes girls' achievements into three broad categories—Girls Discover, Girls Lead, and Girls Take Action.
Leadership is the point where discovery and taking action intersect—it's the bridge between what girls "get" in Girl Scouting through discovery, and what girls "give" back by taking action. Above all, the program focuses on girls gaining leadership skills through activities that match what girls say they want: to belong and to have fun.

Going for the gold in the Girl Scout context means deciding to earn the most prestigious award possible in this 95-year-old organization. It means determining a service project, planning its progress and funding and gaining support for it; then actually raising necessary funds and doing the project. The last step is a report to the Girl Scout Council Gold/Silver Review Board.
The effort entails a lengthy process that requires some vision, determination and hard work – a total of 65 documented hours for older teens who earn the Gold Award. Similarly, girls ages 11 - 14 who earn their Silver award follow the same rigorous procedures – the difference being they are required to apply at least 40 hours to their projects.
Give to Girl Scouts. They give back to their communities.
