What is the Cookie Share in the Community Program?
Before the start of the Cookie Program, a troop or girl chooses which organization in their community they would like to be the recipient of donated Girl Scout cookies (i.e. senior citizen’s centers, VA hospitals, food banks and shelters, local police officers, firefighters, etc). Girls will then ask customers if they would like to purchase an additional box of cookies as a gift to the chosen organization. She explains that this is a Girl Scout Community Service Project. The Cookie Share Program is a great way to engage customers who, due to dietary or other reasons, do not want to receive a box of cookies, but would still like to support the Girl Scouts.
