Throughout our history, we've never
stopped evolving. That's how we continue to
meet the needs of girls today.
Explore our past
Since 1912, Girl Scouts has helped Connecticut's girls build courage, confidence and character. While we have always remained true to Juliette Gordon Low's vision, we are constantly evolving. That's why we say we're 100 years young! Join us, and see how Girl Scouts discover themselves as they explore their world, connect with others and take action through activities and programs that are relevant and exciting to girls today.

SANDY HOOK CAMPERSHIP FUND
Throughout the entire state, we have all been deeply impacted by the tragedy in Newtown, especially upon learning about the eight Girl Scout Daisies who passed away. Many people have asked how they can give. Girl Scouts of Connecticut has set up the Sandy Hook Girl Scout Campership Fund in memory of our Daisies. This fund will help girls who may not otherwise be able to afford summer camp, to attend and will be designated for programs based on activities each girl loved, such as horseback riding, theater, and animal care. Please visit the individual giving page to donate. Please be sure to note your gift is for the Sandy Hook Girl Scout Campership Fund.
