As we celebrate 100 years of building girls of courage, confidence, and character, I want to take a moment to thank all of our volunteers for their contributions to that important mission. Last year, Girl Scouts of the Missouri Heartland had a nearly 18 percent increase in its girl membership — an exciting change that could never have been realized without the help of our volunteers.
Whether it’s their first year or fifth decade giving time to mentor and change the lives of girls, our volunteers put in countless hours to make a difference. They are often present for the first time a girl conquers a fear, meets a goal, or learns something new about the world — and it is because of their commitment, generosity, and heart that girls in our jurisdiction can continue to challenge themselves to learn and grow safely and productively.
