About Girl Scouts of North-Central Alabama
We're over 13,000 strong—9,500 girls and 3,800 adults in 36
counties in the state of Alabama who believe girls can change the world. It
began over 100 years ago with one woman, Girl Scouts' founder Juliette Gordon
"Daisy" Low, who believed in the power of every girl. She organized
the first Girl Scout troop on March 12, 1912, in Savannah, Georgia, and every
year since, we've made her vision a reality, helping girls discover their
strengths, passions, and talents.
Today we continue the Girl Scout mission of building girls of
courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place. Girl
Scouts is the preeminent leadership development organization for girls. Girl
Scouts of North-Central Alabama is a United Way partner. To volunteer,
reconnect, donate or join, visit www.girlscoutsnca.org or call 800-734-4541.
