Make A Difference- Become A Volunteer











Becoming a Volunteer

Thank you for your interest in volunteering for Girl Scouts in the Sweet Onion Service Area! Women and men over the age of 18 help make Girl Scouting happen in our community!

There is a lot to do in Girl Scouts! Don't have enough time to be a Troop Leader? Rather work with adults? Troops are an important part of Girl Scouting, but there are many other amazing opportunities. If you are ready for a new challenge, or know someone who is, we guarantee there is a volunteer opportunity to suit your lifestyle and needs. As a volunteer, you will feel terrific knowing you have helped girls become leaders. You will have a blast! Send an email to glnelms@yahoo.com and the service team will put you in contact with a membership specialist to help find the best way for you to volunteer!
