Girl Scouts Hornets Nest Council
We Are Girl Scouts.
Girl Scouts bring their dreams to life and work together to build a better world.
Through programs from coast to coast, Girl Scouts of all backgrounds and abilities can be unapologetically themselves as they discover their strengths and rise to meet new challenges—whether they want to climb to the top of a tree or the top of their class, lace up their boots for a hike or advocate for climate justice, or make their first best friends.
Backed by trusted adult volunteers, mentors, and millions of alums, Girl Scouts lead the way as they find their voices and make changes that affect the issues most important to them.
Our Mission
Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place.
Girl Scout Promise
On my honor, I will try:
To serve God and my country,
To help people at all times,
And to live by the Girl Scout Law.
The Case for Girl Scouts
LEAD A GIRL - INVEST IN A GIRL - EMPOWER A GIRL
Based on the 2017 State of Girls Report, a report from the Girl Scout Research Institute, North Carolina is currently ranked 41st in the nation, and South Carolina is 40th, based on national measures of girls’ well-being.
Now more than ever, it is imperative that we invest in girls. As the largest girl-serving organization in the world, Girl Scouts is committed to ensuring that all girls develop to their full potential. It is our job to provide them with leadership experiences for discovering the world around them, connecting to supportive adults, and taking action in the world now and in the future. Statistics are not destiny!
Through the Girl Scout Leadership Experience, girls are equipped with the skills, passion, and ability to be successful leaders as they recognize a sense of self, learn positive values, become challenge seekers, develop healthy relationships and contribute to the community and beyond. At Girl Scouts, Hornets’ Nest Council, we seek to serve every girl, everywhere, regardless of socio-economic or cultural barriers that may exist. We help jumpstart girls' journeys by equipping them with the necessary skills and ability to be impactful leaders. Your support will help girls participate in the premier leadership organization.
As a community, let’s continue to go beyond to improve the state of girls across our footprint.
