Thank you for your support!
We’re so grateful for the many ways you showed up for Girl Scouts during Big Day of Giving! Whether you made a gift, shared a post, or encouraged friends and family to give—your support helped raise over $21,303 from 127 donors! That generosity directly supports hundreds of Girl Scout memberships through our Financial Assistance Fund, fueling leadership experiences, outdoor adventures, and hands-on learning—and the impact of your support will be felt across all 18 counties we serve.

Didn’t get a chance to give? It's not too late! Gifts to our Financial Assistance Fund help more girls join Girl Scouts, no matter their family's financial situation.
Volunteer Spotlight
Liz Oller
Liz Oller
Liz Oller took on the role of Folsom Trails SU Cookie Manager after just two years as a troop leader, even while still learning the Girl Scout Cookie Program. She enhanced support for leaders and girls with Rallyhood posts, Zoom office hours, and cookie tips. Liz organized the first mini-drop in 15 years and created a booth transition guide. She leads a multi-level troop, co-hosts a service unit event, and trains another troop to continue it. Liz also created an annual event focused on acorn education and park cleanups, making a big community impact!
