Family Partnership Campaign

Our “$100 in the 100th” Family Partnership Campaign is a way for Girl Scout families to invest in girls’ futures through local programs, camp improvements, scholarships, volunteer support and other critical services.

Funds raised through our annual Family Partnership Campaign help provide quality services to over 41,000 girls and 23,000 volunteers in our communities. Every dollar is vital to helping our girls and your tax-deductible gift will make a significant impact. We ask that each family consider a gift of $100 for the 100th year of Girl Scouting.

All families who give a gift of $25 or more will receive a collectible centennial Family Partnership Patch.  All families who give $100 for the 100th Anniversary will receive the patch, a unique collectible $100 for 100th Pin, and will be entered into a drawing for a four-pack of tickets to Disneyland. They will also be recognized in the GSGLA Annual Report.
