About Us

Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place.

Girl Scouts is the world's pre-eminent organization dedicated solely to girls. Grounded in the values of the Girl Scout Promise and Law, it offers girls a safe, supportive environment.

Partnering with caring adults, girls design fun and challenging activities that empower them to discover, connect, and take action around issues that concern them.

Girl Scouts is a unique girl-only place where a girl finds:

  • courage by exploring new adventures,
  • confidence by discovering her abilities,
  • character by shaping her values, and
  • connections through friendships with other girls.

Girl Scouts of Western Washington serves more than 26,000 girls in grades K-12 in Western Washington. Girls participate in age-based programs as part of a troop or as individual Girl Scouts.

On my honor, I will try:

To serve God* and my country,
To help people at all times,
And to live by the Girl Scout Law.

Girl Scout Law

I will do my best to be

honest and fair,
friendly and helpful,
considerate and caring,
courageous and strong, and
responsible for what I say and do,

and to
respect myself and others,
