Volunteer Opportunities

For girls to benefit from Girl Scouting, they need the guidance of dedicated, caring adults…adults like you!

Some volunteers provide guidance by working directly with girls. Others lend expertise for a specific short-term project or event or serve on the council's board or one of its committees..

In Girl Scouting, we realize that today’s busy adult may not be able to make long-term volunteer commitments.

That is why we offer flexible options to anyone interested in the development of young girls. Below are just a few of the many volunteer positions available in Girl Scouting. Whether it’s once a week, once a month, or once a year, your efforts will make a difference.
