Share Program toggle arrow

What is Share?
“Share” is our annual family giving campaign that brings the magic of Girl Scouting to all girls in San Diego and Imperial counties. With the support of our service units, we raise funds to ensure that every girl can participate, regardless of their ability to pay.

Each service unit sets a fundraising goal on October 1, at the start of the new membership year. Donations made by September 30 will count towards this goal.

You can purchase Share patches for a suggested donation of $15, or earn them through troop or service unit events like craft bazaars.
