Cookie Share in the Community Program is a Girl Scout service initiative that encourages members of the community to buy packages of Girl Scout Cookies to donate to a specific organization, community cause, or group that could not otherwise purchase Girl Scout Cookies - such as Senior Citizen Centers, VA Hospitals, Women's and Children's Shelters, or Food Banks.

How can my troop participate?

• Find a local charitable organization that would appreciate a gift of Girl Scout Cookies. This can include food pantries, homeless shelters, church organizations, VA hospitals, fire or police departments, service men and women, etc.
• Get approval from the organization before you start collecting donations.
• While taking orders, girls ask customers to purchase additional cookies as a special donation to the troop's chosen charity. There is a special column on the order form where girls can record Cookie Share orders.
• Cookie Share boxes should be kept separate from all other cookies.
• Finally, girls get to deliver the cookies to the local charity themselves and realize the satisfaction of helping those in need.
