Guest Editorial: Cookie Power!

MONTGOMERY, AL (WSFA) - It’s Girl Scout Cookie Season! They are awesomely delicious, but beyond the sweetness, Girl Scout Cookies provide an opportunity for girls to do extraordinary things.

Through the Girl Scout Cookie Program girls develop the following essential skills...goal setting, decision making, money management, public speaking, and business ethics and that’s just for starters. Beyond that, when you support a girl’s success through the Girl Scout Cookie Program, you’re helping to equip her to be successful today and in the future.

Proceeds from your cookie purchase stay right here in our community and help power new experiences for every girl. Whether it’s a trip she’ll never forget; a STEM activity that opens her mind to a whole new world of possibilities; a service project that will change her community forever; or the opportunity to build a lifetime of memories at camp, Girl Scout Cookies make it all happen!

Please support a local Girl Scout by purchasing cookies from her today. But don’t delay, they are only here until March 3rd! To find where you can get Girl Scout cookies near you, visit Girl Scouts of Southern Alabama’s website or follow us on social media. Remember, life is short – buy the box, eat the cookies, and make a difference in the lives of girls!
