Winston Churchill
Girl Scouts of Woodland Council (GSWC) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization whose continued success is 100% dependent on public financial support: the individuals, business, and organizations in the communities we serve. The girls of central Wisconsin need partners like you:
- Community members who see their neighborhood children's needs for positive, values-based influences, and who sometimes just a safe place for them to go;
- Adults who remember how tough it can be for kids growing up;
- Businesses that want to give something back that will benefit their communities for many years to come;
- Parents who have seen first-hand the positive influence Girl Scouts has had on their own daughter;
- Grandparents or older adults who see the stark difference between growing up then, and growing up now;
- Anyone who wants to help make a positive difference in the lives of girls & young women!
With your strong financial support, the Girl Scout program can give girls the opportunities they need to develop the positive self-image and strong decision-making skills necessary for their future success!
