Become a Girl Scout Volunteer—You Have What It Takes!
As a Girl Scout volunteer, you’re someone girls can count on. You’re the one who cheers them on, makes them laugh, and listens when they need it most. You can help build a community where every girl is accepted and valued—just by being yourself.
You don’t need any special leadership training or a child of your own to get involved—just a passion for helping others. Get started with Girl Scouts Western Pennsylvania today!
