Real Life Academy is a fun spin on the “Game of Life” for Ambassadors that offers practical, life-skill based experiences. Explore your future through activities like resume building and job shadowing, get an introduction to financial literacy, set goals, and learn valuable life-skills such as budgeting, goal setting, and car maintenance. Both sessions are required. Bring a sack lunch.
As part of this program, you will independently save $250 through money-earning activities such as a part-time job, babysitting, dog-walking, etc. And you will earn a $1,000 scholarship for Girl Scout travel or college if you successfully complete both sessions, an 8-hour job shadow experience, and meet the $250 saving goal!
