My Story…
I am thrilled to have the opportunity to run the Falmouth Road Race - a longtime goal! And I'm even more thrilled that I get to represent Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts on race day. Their mission to help girls' build courage, confidence and character to make the world a better place is more important than ever - especially as I watch my 2 daughters grow and navigate their world. I have committed to raising $1,500 on behalf of GSEMA and appreciate your help in reaching my goal!
The pic is from July, when I dropped Rosie (9) off at GSEM Camp Wind-in-the-Pines in July - her first overnight experience was magical and a huge confidence booster!
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.
