Serving over 5,000 girls in Cortland, Onondaga, Oswego and portions of Madison County, GSCCNY helps girls develop character and learn skills for success in the world around them. In partnership with over 2,000 adult volunteers, girls develop leadership, strong values, social conscience and confidence about their self worth and potential.
Founded in 1912 by Juliette Gordon Low, Girl Scout membership has grown from 18 members in Savannah Georgia to 3.7 million members throughout the US, and more than 90 countries overseas.
