Today January 9th is official Cookie Kick-off Day! Those adorable little girl scouts will begin to canvas your neighborhood selling those deliciously guilty pleasures, Girl Scout Cookies. Yum!All the favorites are back, Somoas, Trefoils, Thin Mints, Tagalongs! I can never just buy one box, I buy at least 4. I'm such a sucker for those cute little faces. It all goes to a great cause and they have fun doing it.
The Girl Scout Cookie program is much more than a fundraiser. It's a way for girls to earn money to realize their dreams, and it's a hands-on leadership and financial literacy program that begins with imagination. At the beginning of the sale girls will ask themselves, “What can we do for fun and learning with our cookie proceeds?” and “What can we do with our Cookie Sale money to help others?”
Whatever goals the girls choose to pursue, they will also build their leadership skills and improve their financial literacy as they discover, connect, and take action to make the world a better place. This cookie season, girls will have world of fun…while making a world of difference.
