My Story…
I am not a runner at all BUT I’ve decided to run the Falmouth Road race to benefit the Girl Scouts of Eastern MA.
Not only do I truly believe in the mission and objective of the organization, I also wanted to show my daughters that everyone can achieve goals they set with some discipline and the support of those they love.
My oldest daughter Molly became a proud Girl Scout this year. She’s really embraced the Girl Scout values and showed her entrepreneurial skills off during her 1st cookie sales by topping her troop’s box count. She “hustled” the neighbors, her school teachers, family and even people she didn’t know when out and about.
The world has changed so much since I was a kid in ways that makes me nervous of what my children may be exposed to. We can’t lose sight of the simple things in life and that is what I believe the Girl Scouts helps our children to do. She’s grown so much since joining and I look forward to her continued participation with such a great organization.
Please consider supporting my campaign to not only give me a little boost to finish the race but to support a great cause!
Description
Building strength and confidence in girls is the cornerstone of Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts’ (GSEMA) mission. Girl Scouts allows girls the opportunity to take risks in a safe and supportive environment, challenging them to try new things and build their confidence. Armed with this assurance, girls go on to do great things: leading peers and others, innovating and forging new paths, and thinking outside the box to benefit their families, communities, and beyond. GSEMA membership is 30,000 strong, with girls and adults in 178 communities in eastern Massachusetts.
Girls gain valuable skills in the four pillars of the Girl Scout Leadership Experience: Life Skills, STEM, Entrepreneurship, and the Outdoors. The Girl Scout programming is a collection of engaging, challenging, and fun age-appropriate activities including earning badges, selling cookies, exploring science and the outdoors, and implementing community service projects.

For over 110 years, Girl Scouts has delivered diverse leadership programming to develop the next generation of strong female leaders with self-confidence and positive values who seek out challenges, maintain healthy relationships, and are committed to improving their communities and beyond. There are currently over 50 million Girl Scout alums; 60% of female members of the 117th Congress are alums, virtually every female astronaut who has ever flown in space is a Girl Scout alum, and every female secretary of state in U.S. history is a former Girl Scout- Madeleine Albright, Condoleezza Rice, and Hillary Clinton.
