Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence and character, who make the world a better place.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence & character, who make the world a better place.

  • The Girl Scout Leadership Experience - The Girl Scout Leadership Experience prepares girls to be future leaders in their communities, businesses, and families by combining each girls' potential with robust skill-building programming that is designed to meet her where she is now and grow along with her and which is centered around four core areas: STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math), Outdoors, Life Skills, and Entrepreneurship. Girl Scout programming is proven to help girls thrive as they develop a strong sense of self, display positive values, seek challenges and learn from setbacks, form and maintain healthy relationships, and identify and solve problems in the community. During the year ended September 30, 2025, the Girl Scout Leadership Experience gave over 22,000 girls the tools they need to make the world a better place, including 2,000 girls who participated in STEM program activities, over 800 girls who received a Gold, Silver, or Bronze Award, and approximately 14,000 girls participated in the Financial Literacy program selling cookies. GSGATL also provided over 2,000 girls with financial assistance for membership and 14 girls received a total of $50,000 in Gold Award scholarships.

    Expenses $3,803,553 · Grants $79,433 · Revenue $11,339,427

  • The Girl Scout Outdoor Program - the Girl Scout Camp Program is a place to embrace the natural environment, promote community, teach critical thinking, and create future leaders. Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta offers year-round camp experiences that promote these essential life skills in the outdoor setting at three camp facilities throughout our 34-county territory. During the year ended September 30, 2025, the Girl Scout Camp Program delivered over 9,000 experiences to girls and adults that provided the skills and experiences they need to build a solid foundation for self-management, healthy lifestyles and team building through day events, Council and volunteer day camps, equestrian activities, and weekend events.

    Expenses $5,266,546 · Grants $110,685 · Revenue $1,752,913

  • Member and Volunteer Services - GSGATL is dedicated to building girls of courage, confidence, and character who make the world a better place. Girl Scouting is primarily delivered by volunteers with Council resources dedicated to supporting the recruitment, education, support, and retention of volunteers. During the year ended September 30, 2025, over 22,000 girls and over 12,000 adult volunteers participated in the delivery of the Girl Scout Leadership Experience. Without our signature volunteer education and support, GSGATL would not be able to deliver its premier leadership development programming.

    Expenses $4,851,171 · Grants $186,322 · Revenue $24,375

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

Schedule J
