The Girl Scouts is a renowned and cherished institution founded in the US in 1912 in Savannah, Georgia. Today, the Girl Scouts is a global movement that aims to empower young girls to become confident, courageous, and compassionate leaders. It provides a platform for girls to explore their interests, develop their talents, and make a positive impact on their communities and the world at large.
One of the remarkable aspects of Girl Scouts is its inclusivity. Girl Scouts Overseas is open to all children of foreign passport holders, starting from as young as 5 years old. This early start allows girls to embark on their journey of self-discovery and personal development at a tender age.
Through a variety of activities, such as camping, community service projects, and skill-building workshops, the kids in the Girl Scouts learn essential life skills like teamwork, communication, problem-solving, and decision-making. They also have the chance to make lasting friendships and build a sense of sisterhood with like-minded peers.
The organization emphasizes leadership development, encouraging girls to take on responsibilities, voice their opinions, and drive change. Whether it’s organizing a charity event, leading a group on an adventure, or advocating for a cause they believe in, girls in the Girl Scouts gain the confidence and skills needed to make a difference.
In addition to the practical skills and leadership opportunities, being a Girl Scout is also about having fun creating memories, and making friendships that will last a lifetime.
If you have a child aged 5 or above with a foreign passport, don’t miss this wonderful opportunity for her to join the Girl Scouts. Girl Scouts Beijing is proud to support the LGBTQ+ community and is open to all girls. For more information, join the WeChat group below.
