Renew

Keep her engaged and inspired in challenging times

In challenging times, our Girl Scout grit shines the brightest. That’s why we’re prepared to be a source of consistency for you and your girl when you need it most.

As we navigate through the COVID-19 pandemic together, we’re working hard to ensure your girl has access to the Girl Scout experience she knows and loves in a way she can access right now. And as things continue to evolve and change, we’ll continue to adapt to meet her needs.

NEW! GSCSNJ Early Renewal Incentives »

GSCSNJ is excited to announce a very special 2020-21 Early Renewal incentive for individual Girl Scouts! This new incentive aims to help us continue providing the same sense of community our Girl Scouts have come to love and is our way of helping ease families’ financial burdens during these uncertain times.

Girl Incentive

All Girl Scouts that renew at the full membership rate of $40 during the Early Renewal period (May 1 – July 15) will receive a FREE MORE TO EXPLORE 2020-21 patch AND a $10 GSCSNJ CREDIT!

With the $10 credit, she can choose to use it one of three ways:

Explore Summer Adventures: Apply the credit to a 2020 GSCSNJ Summer Camp experience (More information about Summer Camp coming the first week of June!)
Support Local Girl Scouts: Donate through GSCSNJ’s Families Helping Girls program to earn a second fun patch this early renewal season
Treat Yourself: The credit can be refunded via mailed check to the individual who paid for the membership

Girl Incentive (More Info): Once a Girl Scout’s membership is renewed, the GSCSNJ Customer Care team will contact the family to confirm how they would like to apply the $10 credit.

-

Any girls who have already renewed their membership at the full rate of $40 before the announcement of this new incentive will also receive the $10 credit!

Please expect a call from the Girl Scouts of Central & Southern New Jersey.
Troop Incentive: All GSCSNJ troops that have 75% of their Girl Scouts renew by July 15 will receive a $50 gift card to the GSCSNJ Juliette’s Closet Shops!

Once your troop has reached 75% renewed, please complete the Juliette’s Closet Gift Card Request Form, available on gscsnj.org/renew starting Tuesday, May 26. A GSCSNJ Specialist will review each submission and process the request. The $50 gift card will be mailed to the troop leader address provided in the submission form. *All form submissions must be completed by July 30th*

-

Any troop that has already reached 75% of girls renewed before the announcemnt of this new incentive is still eligible to claim a $50 gift card by completing the Juliette’s Closet Gift Card Request Form.
Service Unit Incentive: The top 10 Service Units with the highest girl renewal percentage will receive a $100 Juliette’s Closet Gift Card.

Check into GSCSNJ’s Facebook and Instagram every Tuesday, starting June 2 for updates on which Service Units are in the lead!

Because we have to remain physically apart right now, connection is more important than ever and the Girl Scout experience your girl loves and depends on is still happening. Renew her membership to start her next adventure.

FAQs

Q: Why isn’t my username working?
A: Your username is typically your email address. If you have more than one email address, try each. You can also use the “Forgot Your Password?” link to send a reset email to your email address. If you’re still having trouble, contact your council’s Customer Care team.

Q: Why aren’t I getting the password reset emails?
A: The password reset emails come from gsusacustomercare@girlscouts.org, so please make sure it’s added to your safe senders list. If you requested the reset email before marking our email address as safe, check your spam folder. If you’re still not receiving the email, contact your council’s Customer Care team to verify that your username/email address is correct.

Q: How do I reset my password when I no longer have access to the email address associated with my account?
A: Your council’s Customer Care team can easily change your username/email address without requiring you to recreate your account.

Q: Why can’t I see my family when I log in?
A: There are a couple reasons this could happen:

Another adult family member may be listed as the preferred contact on the account. That person must log in to renew. Contact your council’s Customer Care team if you’d like to be listed as your household’s preferred contact.
You may have a second or duplicate account with a different email address. Try a different username. If that works, be sure to contact your council’s Customer Care team to merge the two accounts into one.

Q: Why can’t I see my troop(s) when I log in?
A: There are several reasons this could happen:

Troops are listed on a separate tab from your family. If you have more than one troop, look for the pull-down menu to change between them.
Check your member profile to make sure you’re listed as a volunteer in the troop.
Not all troop volunteers can access the troop tab. Check with your council to see which volunteer roles they allow to access the tab.
If your background check has expired, you may lose access until it is up-to-date.

Q: How do I purchase a Lifetime Membership?
A: To purchase a Lifetime Membership for yourself, or to purchase as a gift for a “Young Alum” please click here.
