Ways to Give

With your support, they shine.

Girl Scouts need a champion. They need a community willing to invest in their dreams. They need a network of alums and supporters cheering them on and showing them what’s possible.

Giving to Girl Scouts is easy: You can make a one-time gift, or you can make a pledge or gift through one of our giving societies or specialized funds: Juliette’s Circle and Daisy’s Circle, or the Friendship Circle. Your tax-deductible contribution will directly benefit more than 10,000 girls and adult volunteers in countless ways throughout Southwest Texas.

Friendship Circle

Our Friendship Circle helps provide resources for girls and troops who would not be able to participate in the Girl Scout Leadership Experience otherwise. We invite you to make a donation to provide financial assistance for membership dues and items such as books and uniforms for girls who might not have the resources to obtain these items.

Have questions? Please email development@girlscouts-swtx.org or call 210-349-2404.

Make your donation

In-kind Donations: In-kind donations are donations that are "paid or given in goods, commodities, or services instead of money." This includes donations of actual items, labor, or gift cards -- it does not include donations made by cash or check. The rule of thumb is if you can put it in your bank account it is not an in-kind donation.

Please be sure to complete an In-Kind Donation Form so that your gift can be acknowledged appropriately. Remember -- because service units and/or troops are not 501(c)(3) entities in accordance with state and federal laws, they cannot request tax-free gifts nor can they issue receipts for tax-free donations. All cash donations of $250 or more or any donations requiring a tax-exempt receipt that are received by troops or service units should be given to the council (via your GO Team) for documentation. When applicable, the council will issue a receipt and acknowledgment letter and ensure proper disbursement of the funds back to the troop or service unit.

For further questions regarding in-kind donations, please contact Janet Pedrotti (210-349-2404/1-800-580-7247 ext. 223).

Why Donate?

Your gift to Girl Scouts will help prepare girls for a lifetime of leadership, success and adventure in a safe, no-limits space designed for and by girls!

Through the Girl Scout Leadership Experience – which is our collection of engaging, challenging and fun activities like earning badges, going on awesome trips, selling cookies, exploring science, getting outdoors and giving back to the community – girls will learn by doing and build essential skills along the way.

Four areas form the foundation of the Girl Scout Leadership Experience:

STEM: We work to engage a girl’s interest in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) through dozens of new badges and awards that encourage girls to explore space science, computer science, engineering and outdoor STEM fields.
Outdoors: Through progressive outdoor programs for all ages, girls experience nature and become environmental stewards and protectors of our planet.
Life skills: Girls enhance the academic skills they learn in school through topics such as civic engagement, healthy living, financial literacy, the arts and global citizenship.
Entrepreneurship: Through the iconic Girl Scout Cookie Program, girls can change the world by learning essential business skills such as goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills and business ethics.

See what your gift can do:

$50 will provide CPR & First Aid Training Certification for a teen Girl Scout to learn life-saving skills that will last her a lifetime.

$150 will provide a financial literacy program for 15 girls to help them learn how to save for their future.

$200 will provide a camp scholarship for a girl to experience an outdoor adventure she will never forget.

$275 provides a girl one full year of Girl Scouts - where she can discover who she can be and what she can do, wherever she
chooses to put her energies.

An investment in Girl Scouts is broader than a cause or a cure.
It's a commitment to a generation.

With your support, they shine.
