Showing love and appreciation for volunteers is a must. After all, our volunteers are Ah-mazing! They (you) do it all for the girls, often through extra hours on top of busy schedules and hectic lives. We love them for it and, well, Girl Scouting wouldn’t be the same without them. Let’s be sure to shout it from the Girl Scout rooftops!
