Girl Scout Promise
On my honor, I will try:
To serve God* and my country,
To help people at all times,
And to live by the Girl Scout Law.
*Members may substitute for the word God
in accordance with their own spiritual beliefs.
Girl Scouts discover who they are, tap into the power inside them and build the confidence to let it shine.
Through programs from coast to coast and overseas, girls of all backgrounds and abilities come as they are and create their own paths. Each step becomes a part of the journey, and along the way, they explore their passions, develop hands-on skills and discover the tools they need to lead with joy on their own terms.
Challenges don’t stop Girl Scouts. They discover their strengths in science labs and on hiking trails, at cookie booths and in front of city councils. Backed by volunteers, mentors and millions of alums, they are part of a lifelong sisterhood of powerful change-makers who are always on their side.
Girl Scouts. Because the world deserves to see their full potential—and they deserve to experience it.
The Girl Scouts of NYPENN Pathways Council (GSNYPENN) is committed to fostering a culture that values diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging for our members, volunteers, Board of Directors, and staff.
We recognize that differences in age, race, gender, nationality, sexual orientation, physical ability, thinking style, and background bring richness to our organization.
These differences help us connect better with the areas we serve and help build relationships among ourselves and within our communities.
The key to our success is developing, hiring, and retaining a diverse team and ensuring all members have a sense of belonging.
Belonging further enhances what we bring to our team, our members, our volunteers, our families, and our communities.
We are committed to using these practices in the communities we serve and our workplace.
Making friends, discovering your strengths, exploring new possibilities—it’s all waiting for you!
