  • 2012 is the Year of the Girl

    2012 is the year of the girl

    There is a greatness in girls that's hard to suppress. With a supportive environment, today's girls will become tomorrow's role models, leaders and captains of industry.

    Girl Scouts of the USA has declared 2012 the Year of the Girl: A year to celebrate girls, recognize their leadership potential, and commit to creating a coalition of like-minded organizations and individuals in support of balanced leadership in the workplace and in communities across the country.

    Support makes all the difference. Take time today to participate, speak up, and invest because when girls succeed, so does society. Together we can get her there.

    Year of the Girl.
