Green for Good is no ordinary expo! It’s a life-changing, family-friendly experience to spark innovation, creativity, advocacy, and action to make the world a better place.

Hosted by the Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago and Northwest Indiana, Green for Good is open to everyone whether you're a Girl Scout or not!

At Green for Good you will get to:

  • Learn to lead on environmental issues and protecting our natural resources;
  • Discover actionable ways to change habits at home, in your community, and in the world;
  • Cultivate new ideas through hands-on, interactive activities;
  • Dialogue with brands, nonprofits and industry leaders in our expansive exhibit hall

Why Green for Good?

It’s in Girl Scouts’ DNA. Our founder, Juliette Gordon Low, was a famous lover of nature. Today, Girl Scouts honors her legacy by promoting respect and love of the great outdoors far and wide.

Through Girl Scouting, girls learn to value the Earth as their home and are inspired to develop a lasting commitment to the environment through care, conservation, and responsibility.
