PGMA Girl Scouts “Meet a Girl Scout Muslimah” Interfaith Outreach, May 14

As a part of earning our My Promise, My Faith pin, PGMA Girl Scouts are reaching out to local Girl Scouts of other faiths. Our goal is to combat Islamophobia by educating our sister Girl Scouts about Islam and Muslims through song, informative presentations, a tea party, a tour of the impressive Diyanet Center campus, and, of course, SWAPS!

Invite local Girl Scouts of all faiths to register for this free event here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/meet-a-girl-scout-muslimah-tickets-22503108403

PGMA Girl Scouts should wear their full uniform (white scarf, white shirt & khaki pants or khaki jilbab) and uniform vest. Bring an extra scarf in case one of our guests forgets or does not have one. Girls should arrive at 10:30AM to set up and be prepared to leave at 2:30PM after cleaning up. No tagalongs please.

Troop 3480 Girls Earn My Promise, My Faith Pin

The Girl Scout My Promise, My Faith pins invites girls to experience a faith journey through exploration of the Girl Scout Law and teachings from their faith. Girls can earn this national pin each year. This journey into faith allows girls to both learn more about Islam and grow stronger in their deen. Though this award is national, each religious organization develops and administers its own program. These recognitions are worn on the front of a Girl Scout’s vest or smock.
