I have always wanted to be a Girl Scout, and starting our Troop at Notre Dame Cristo Rey with Ashley Hasling and Lori Beverage has made my dream a reality. Girl Scouts has taught me that accomplishing your goals is never too late. In creating our troop, we have provided many opportunities for our girls. We are one of the two troops in the Lawrence/Methuen Area. GSEMA has allowed our girls to explore nature, make long-lasting relationships, and build strong female bonds. This would not be possible without the generous volunteers at GSEMA.
I run to continue to provide more opportunities for my girls, especially my young women of color. The Girl Scouts organization has significantly impacted young women of color by providing them with a supportive and empowering environment to develop essential life skills, build self-confidence, and pursue leadership opportunities. Girl Scouts emphasizes inclusivity and celebrates diversity. It recognizes and values the experiences, cultures, and backgrounds of young women of color, fostering an environment where they feel seen, heard, and supported. This inclusivity helps girls develop a sense of belonging and self-acceptance.
Girl Scouts aligns with my mission to enhance women empowerment, and I'm honored to run for such an impactful organization!
A small donation about the cost of eating out, can provide a year's membership in Girl Scouts for one girl!
Siempre quise ser una Girl Scout, y comenzar nuestra Tropa en Notre Dame Cristo Rey con Ashley Hasling y Lori Beverage hizo realidad mi sueño. Girl Scouts me ha enseñado que lograr tus metas nunca es demasiado tarde. Al crear nuestra tropa, hemos proporcionado muchas oportunidades para nuestras niñas. Somos una de las dos tropas en el área de Lawrence/Methuen. GSEMA ha permitido a nuestras niñas explorar la naturaleza, entablar relaciones duraderas y construir fuertes lazos femeninos. Esto no sería posible sin los generosos voluntarios de GSEMA.
Me postulo para continuar brindando más oportunidades a mis hijas, especialmente a mis jóvenes de color. La organización Girl Scouts ha impactado significativamente a las mujeres jóvenes de color al brindarles un entorno de apoyo y empoderamiento para desarrollar habilidades esenciales para la vida, desarrollar la confianza en sí mismas y buscar oportunidades de liderazgo. Girl Scouts enfatiza la inclusión y celebra la diversidad. Reconoce y valora las experiencias, las culturas y los antecedentes de las mujeres jóvenes de color, fomentando un entorno en el que se sientan vistas, escuchadas y apoyadas. Esta inclusión ayuda a las niñas a desarrollar un sentido de pertenencia y autoaceptación.
¡Girl Scouts se alinea con mi misión de mejorar el empoderamiento de las mujeres, y me siento honrada de postularme para una organización tan impactante!
¡Una pequeña donación sobre el costo de salir a comer puede proporcionar un año de membresía en Girl Scouts para una niña!
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.
