Girl Scouts of Historic Georgia Celebrates National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend February 16–18, Encouraging Consumers to Support Local Girl Entrepreneurs as They Unbox a Brighter Future, One Cookie Box at a Time.

On hand and in demand, customers across Georgia can now support their favorite girl entrepreneurs in person at cookie booths or by ordering their favorite Girl Scout Cookies to be shipped directly to their front door.

[GEORGIA] Feb. 13, 2024—Girl Scouts of Historic Georgia invites communities across Georgia to celebrate National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend, happening February 16–18. Starting February 16,
consumers nationwide can purchase cookies in person from Girl Scouts at any local booth as well as order cookies for direct shipment to their front door using the Girl Scout Cookie Finder. Cookies
are available for $5 per box. As always, all Girl Scout Cookie® proceeds stay local with councils and troops to power life-changing experiences year-round for Girl Scouts.
The 2024 national Girl Scout Cookie season theme, Unbox the Future, aims to remove social barriers that often keep girls boxed in. The Girl Scout Cookie Program® is the world’s largest entrepreneurial program for girls and builds courage, confidence and character through girl-led experiences.
As a result, girls kickstart their limitless, barrier-breaking futures ‘outside the box’ by learning transferable life skills including goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills and
business ethics.

National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend marks a time when America’s favorite cookies are widely available across the United States with each purchase supporting local Girl Scouts. These proceeds
help local Girl Scouts fund invaluable experiences like attending Girl Scout summer camp, going on fun field trips and spearheading meaningful community service projects. As consumers open their
favorite package of Girl Scout Cookies, they are unboxing the future for girls in their community.
Behind every Girl Scout Cookie purchase is a troop exploring their leadership potential, building lifelong friendships and making the world around them a better place.
