Is your girl an entrepreneur? Does she want to learn how to become one? Participation in Cookie College positions girls for success in the business world. Girls strengthen the five skills they learn through the Girl Scout Cookie Program: goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills, and business ethics. Girls will rotate through classes to learn about these valuable life skills and begin to plan for their own cookie business. Cookie Sales also helps girls and their troop raise money for programming. Does your daughter want to attend Girl Scout camp? She can earn her way there by selling cookies with her troop and attending Cookie College could boost her sales.
