Adopt-a-Troop Volunteer

Description

Not every volunteer role means leading meetings. Sometimes the most meaningful support happens behind the scenes.

• Provide snacks for meetings
• Donate or collect materials for a STEM project or art activity
• Secure outdoor gear or books
• Sponsor a troop experience
• Serve as a caring adult mentor and cheerleader for troop leaders and girls

About the role

This role is especially helpful for troops in communities with fewer resources, and it can make a real difference in what girls are able to experience. Whether you’re an individual, family, friend group, employee resource group, or business looking for a meaningful way to give back, Adopt-a-Troop is a practical and personal way to support girls close to home.

About GSHNC

Girl Scouts builds courage, confidence, and character in girls through hands-on experiences, supportive mentors, and opportunities to try new things. We’re looking for caring adults and community partners who want to help girls grow, learn, and lead—whether that means supporting a troop meeting, hosting a field trip, teaching a skill, helping at an event, or opening doors in the community. No previous Girl Scout experience is required—just a willingness to show up, encourage girls, and make a difference.
