The Golden Link - November/December 2003 Volume 29 Issue 10 


The Fund Development/Brand Management Department solicits donations from corporations, foundations, and individuals to assure that Girl Scouting is available for all girls and to provide financial means for Girl Scout programs.

Supporters may honor others in Girl Scouting in several ways: donations to one of the Council's many funds, an engraved brick on the Promise Path at Camp Agnes Arnold, or a plaque at Camp Casa Mare. Women may join The Emerald Circle, a social and service group, which supports Girl Scouting through its membership fees.

Donate on-line to any of the Council funds at www.gssjc.org.

Your gifts make Girl Scouting possible

Your financial support provides a future for the girls in our 21-county community. Your gift makes a difference allowing Girl Scouting to carry on its special work now and in the future. An outright gift of cash, stock or person a property is put to immediate use or restricted to your areas of interest. You may contribute to the GSSJC in any of the following ways: a memorial gift commemorating a friend of relative; a gift of celebration recognizing an important birth, graduation, anniversary, or other event; Family Partnership, a gift to the Campership Fund that helps girls go to resident camp, buy a brick at Camp Agnes Arnold, or a bequest in your will.

To ensure the long-term financial security of the Council, a bequest or contribution to GSSJC will enable us to respond to new opportunities. For additional information about all these gift opportunities contact the Fund Development department at 713-292-0300.
