2010 Report to the Community
Welcome to Girl Scouts of Western Washington’s 2010 Report to the Community.
Being in Girl Scouts teaches girls about perseverance, service, friendship and conviction. Girl Scouts know what it means to be compassionate and share what they have with others. We are also an organization that encourages girls and young women to look at and explore the world in as many ways as they can imagine.
Below we introduce you to a few of the girls, young women and adults who serve as living examples of the courage, confidence and character—and all the words in-between—that characterize Girl Scouts.
Girl Scouts of Western Washington would like to thank our donors, volunteers, girls and families for their involvement with and support of Girl Scouting. Lives are being changed because of your thoughtful engagement with the Girl Scout community.
We share a vision for the future of girls in Western Washington. Together, we are helping that vision take shape.

2008-2009 Women of Distinction
In 2008-2009, Girl Scouts of Western Washington recognized six outstanding Girl Scout alumnae as Women of Distinction. Strong role models are integral to the Girl Scout mission. Girl Scouts would like to recognize these women for the leadership and public service they provide, which affects not just girls, but the communities in which they live and serve.
