Who We Are

For almost 100 years, the Girl Scout movement has been changing the lives of girls and improving communities locally and around the world.

As Girl Scouts Heart of the South approaches this monumental landmark, we can look back and see how the foundation of Girl Scouts is ever present in today's Girl Scout experience. By providing relevant programming for today's girls, we cultivate leadership through exciting activities that challenge girls to take on new journeys.

Where else can you learn new dance moves, go camping, take care of the planet, develop your leadership skills, contribute to your community, learn business skills, experience art, stay healthy and active, become independent and work together as a team in one place? Girl Scouts Heart of the South prepares girls for their future by focusing on leadership, math, science, technology, healthy living, financial literacy and the arts. We also offer programs through community partnerships.

THE BASICS OF THE GIRL SCOUT TRADITION:

  • meet new people and have fun in a troop setting
  • discover what interests you
  • develop confidence and grow together with other girls and young women
  • become independent and gain courage
  • contribute to your community
  • learn business skills and how to budget and save
  • set individual and group goals and connect with others
  • earn some of Girl Scouting's highest honors - Bronze, Silver and Gold Awards
  • have access to many leadership opportunities that aren't available anywhere else
  • travel the world!

Girl Scouts Heart of the South covers 59 counties in north Mississippi, west Tennessee, and east Arkansas.
