Donate | Girl Scouts

Help them navigate the pathway to success.

Before a Girl Scout sails around the world or designs their own fashion line, they need to believe they can do it.

Invest in our local Girl Scouts and make those dreams a reality. Then watch as they discover new interests and chase their dreams—with the pride of knowing you helped make it possible.

Your Support Gives Girls Opportunities

Your gift will be used to ensure local Girl Scouts gain the skills and confidence needed to accept challenges, overcome obstacles, and become leaders. Plus, every dollar you give stays right here in our community. Here are examples of what your gift will provide:

$500: Allows a girl to travel the world.
$250: Gives a girl one week of overnight camp.
$100: Provides our Community Outreach Program to underserved girls.
$50: Allows girls to attend a STEM or arts and culture program.
$45: Provides a girl's membership for one year.

Real Life Academy: Real Life Academy is a fun spin on the “Game of Life” that offers practical, life-skill based experiences. Girls explore their future through activities like resume building and job shadowing, get an introduction to financial literacy, set goals, and learn valuable life-skills such as cooking and car maintenance.
Camp Programs: Guided by supportive adults and peers, girls discover the wonders of nature, experience the thrill of adventure, and challenge themselves and one another to reach new heights at any one of our six camp properties. These experiences inspire girls to take action to protect the environment.

Honorarium and Memoriam toggle arrow

Honorarium and memoriam gifts are reverential ways for you to honor loved ones. An honorarium acknowledges someone still living, while a memoriam is in memory of a person who is deceased.

Birthdays, anniversaries, recognition of an award, graduations or the passing of a loved one are all appropriate times to honor or remember those close to you, especially if they have a connection to Girl Scouts.

The council will send an acknowledgement to the person or family specified by the benefactor, and the benefactor will receive an acknowledgement of their donation for tax purposes.

Girl Scouts Spirit of Nebraska’s Juliette Gordon Low Society encourages major and planned gifts to support Girl Scouting well into the future. We believe anyone can leave a legacy. Through a planned gift you can support girls today with cash, stock, or design a plan as part of your estate that benefits our members after your lifetime.

Members who make a planned gift will receive a Juliette Gordon Low Society pin.
Members who make a major gift or planned gift of $100,000 or greater will receive a pearl necklace.

The Power of the Next Century initiative invites visionary donors to make long-term investments that strengthen our financial foundation and ensure Girl Scouting remains accessible and impactful for generations to come.

Community Outreach Program toggle arrow

Each year, we provide the Girl Scouting experience to more than 3,000 Nebraska girls through our Community Outreach Program. Participating in a traditional Girl Scout Troop can be challenging for many reasons. Our program connects with girls, meets them where they are, and removes barriers such as lack of financial resources, transportation, and access to volunteers.
