History
Founded in 1912 by Juliette Gordon Low, Girl Scouts' membership has grown from 18 girls in Savannah, GA to 3.4 million members throughout the United States and in more than 90 countries through USA Girl Scouts overseas. In Girl Scouting, girls discover their values and use their knowledge and skills to explore the world, connect by caring about, inspiring and teaming with others locally and globally, taking action to make the world a better place.
