Change the world, Girl Scout!
Gold Award Girl Scouts are role models and real-life heroes. How do they do it? By using everything they’ve learned as a Girl Scout to solve a problem in their community or make a lasting change in their world.
Seniors and Ambassadors who want to go for the Gold Award build a team of trusted adults, peers, and leaders in their community to guide them through challenges and support their success.
For Girl Scouts
Nothing beats that feeling of seeing real, lasting, and sustainable change and knowing it was you who made it happen. It changes the way you see your place in the world—and how the world sees you. This journey may open the door to scholarships, recognition and future opportunities.
Important Deadlines:
Gold Award final reports must be submitted no later than Sept. 1st of a Girl Scout's high school graduation year. To attend the Gold Award ceremony of that year, the deadline to attend submit the final report is April 1st.
