Volunteers can serve as troop leaders, or work with other adults to provide behind-the-scenes support in roles such as troop helpers, adult training facilitators, or as a member of our board of directors. Whether you can give a few hours, a few weeks, or a few months, volunteering with Girl Scouts is flexible and fun. Testimonials “Girl Scouts has taught me to be myself and made me a better person. Because of Girl Scouts I know how to handle anything someone throws at me. Girl Scouts gives you lots of opportunities to explore. I learned I can really do anything I put my mind to. It has also taught me that if you think you can do it, you can. Girl Scouts gave me the mindset that I know I can do anything.” —Sara, Gold Award Girl Scout 2019 G I R L S CO U T S O F T H E M I S S O U R I H E A RT L A N D A D D R E S S 2 1 0 S .
