Each year, Girl Scouts of Southeastern New England selects a local organization to be the recipient of our annual Cookie Program Community Service Project. As part of the Cookie Program, Girl Scouts can learn about the work that these great organizations do and they are given the opportunity to support this organization by volunteering their time. Girl Scouts can also choose to donate a portion of their cookie proceeds to support the Community Service Project organization. It is a great opportunity to learn about the importance of giving back to their communities!
The 2025 service project recipient will be Youth Pride, Inc. (YPI). Youth Pride, Inc.’s mission is to meet the unique, ongoing needs of LGBTQ+ youth and young adults through direct service, support, advocacy, and education. YPI’s values focus on leadership, affirmation, community, and policy/advocacy work for the LGBTQ+ community. This is a great opportunity for Girl Scouts to learn about the importance of giving back to their communities.
This year, we are accepting donations online through May 1st. Any troop that donates $50 or more will receive the service project patch for all Girl Scouts in the troop that sold cookies.
