Support the Next Generation of Leaders

Girls need a space where they can feel safe, seen, and encouraged to be their authentic selves. Where they can build a strong support system of peers and adults they can trust. Where they can have new experiences in the world and discover how their voice matters.

Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago and Northwest Indiana provides that space for girls and lifts them up so they can achieve their goals and live their dreams.

Together, we are building girls of courage, confidence, and character who make the world a better place. 

Smart Cookies: Badge Bash

Get ready for an impactful evening with Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago and Northwest Indiana, led by our Associate Board, at the Chicago Cultural Center!

1912 Society Event

We are honored to recognize our 1912 Society members who have generously contributed $50,000 or more toward advancing our mission to build girls of courage, confidence, and character who make the world a better place.
The 1912 Society was inspired by a challenge from the Landgraf Family Foundation and in November 2023, we formally launched the giving society with the unveiling of two new donor walls at our Chicago and Vernon Hills Gathering Places. As of December 2025, we have 51 members of the 1912 Society, and we look forward to welcoming many more over the coming years! If you have any questions or would like to learn more, please contact Glynnis Hokenson at GHokenson@girlscoutsgcnwi.org.
