What is National Girl Scout Leader's Day?
Thousands of leaders who volunteer their time and share their experiences with youth around the country each year. National Girl Scout Leader's Day on April 22nd honors the thousands of leaders who volunteer their time and share their experiences with youth around the country. Since the inception of Girl Scouting in 1912, Girl Scout volunteer leaders have been positively impacting girls' lives. These women are often regarded as models for girls as they approach womanhood. They provide a foundation of hope, expertise, admiration, and courage that follows a young woman through her lifetime.
Around 750,000 adults volunteer their time with the Girl Scouts. Girls gain expertise in community service, stewardship, marriage planning, and much more through their leadership. Their leaders include decision-making skills, build confidence and character, form friendships, and prepare leaders for tomorrow.
