Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson, Inc. (GSHH) and Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA) are celebrating National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend February 18–20 with the launch of nationwide online cookie ordering. Customers who don’t already know a Girl Scout now have the chance to purchase Girl Scout Cookies online for direct shipment to their door or donation to local causes. Girl Scouts are selling classic Girl Scout flavors including Thin Mints®, Trefoils®, Tagalongs®, and more!
The annual National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend highlights Girl Scout entrepreneurs across the United States who sell cookies to their families, friends, and communities via in-person booths, door-to-door activity, and the Digital Cookie® platform online. In addition to launching online ordering nationally for customers who haven’t already satisfied their cookie craving, this year Girl Scouts throughout Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson will be participating in the Girl Scout Cookie Program in their communities with socially distanced and contactless ordering tools.
Every Girl Scout Cookie purchase helps girls learn important entrepreneurial skills and powers amazing adventures for them. Girl Scouts use their cookie earnings to better their communities, explore new things in STEM and the outdoors, plan exciting travel adventures, have fun experiences with their friends, and so much more. Girl Scouts in Girl Scout Heart of the Hudson also donate cookies to active and veteran service people at home and overseas through our council’s Operation Cookie Drop, now in its 20th year.
Marie Reger, CEO of Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson, Inc., said of the Girl Scout Cookie Program, “Girl Scout Cookie Season is one of our favorite times of year. It is an opportunity for Girl Scouts to bring the skills they have learned through their Girl Scout journey into their communities and develop their entrepreneurial skills. The Girl Scout Cookie Program is the largest girl-led entrepreneurial program in the world, and we are so happy support the leaders of tomorrow in achieving their goals.”
