Ways to Volunteer

Be the troop leader that supports them every week—the one that watches their smiles get bigger as they grow more confident. Be their mentor during Girl Scout Cookie season so they can reach their goals. Or work with other adults to provide behind-the-scenes support that makes it possible for Girl Scouts to create amazing new memories.

Whether you can give a few hours, a few weeks, or a few months, volunteering with Girl Scouts is flexible and fun. Explore all the ways you can volunteer and check out our Volunteer Opportunity Flyers (Available in English and Spanish).
