As part of GSLE, girls participate in the two product programs: Mags & Munchies Sale in the Fall and the Girl Scout Cookie Program in the Spring. By participating in these financial literacy programs girls develop important life skills of goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills, and business ethics that will set girls up for success beyond anything they can imagine. Benefits of participation in the product programs:
- Builds the troop’s treasury, which opens opportunity for the troop to engage in the activities of interest to the all girls while reducing financial burden to families.
- Individual girls are able to earn Cookie Credits that can be applied towards experiences like travel or council events, as well as their Girl Scout membership renewal. A Cookie Credits Redemption Form would need to be submitted for redemptions as girls earn them.
