Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts
About
Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts is the regional Girl Scout council for the eastern part of the state. Its stated aim is to help girls become leaders of courage, confidence and character who make the world a better place. Girls explore what excites them, build confidence and grow alongside friends and mentors, and families can join, renew a membership or sign up to volunteer through the council.
The council belongs to Girl Scouts of the USA, the national organization founded in 1912 by Juliette Gordon Low and known for its cookie sale, badges and the Gold Award, the highest honor a Girl Scout can earn. Science and engineering are part of the programming as well: during STEM Week, the council has invited girls to spend a day building wind-powered vehicles with engineers from RTX.
