Girl Scouts of Central Maryland

We believe in the power of every G.I.R.L. (Go-getter, Innovator, Risk-taker, Leader)™ to change the world. We’re the preeminent leadership development organization for girls. Girl Scouts offers every girl a chance to practice a lifetime of leadership, adventure, and success. Created in 1962 through the merger of three Girl Scout Councils, the mission of Girl Scouts of Central Maryland is to develop girls of courage, confidence and character who make the world a better place. It is the largest leadership development organization for girls and provides programs and initiatives that build the character and skills necessary for success in the real world. While some people still think of us as just cookies, badges, campfires, and friendship bracelets, Girl Scouts are so much more. Girl Scouts are groundbreakers, big thinkers, and role models. Girl Scouts design robots, start garage bands, and improve their communities—and yes, they sell the best cookies on the planet.Governed by a 26-member Board of Directors and under the direction of a 52-person staff, GSCM serves more than 24,000 girls and 9,000 volunteers in Baltimore City, Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Carroll, Harford and Howard Counties.
