Girl Scout Highest Awards
Highest Award Girl Scouts are making the world a better place by making a difference in her community and the greater world, while developing different skills and experiences along the way. These young women are inspiring leaders whose Take Action Projects are impacting the worlds of STEM, education, agriculture, medicine, and more on a local, national, or global level. By the time you put the final touches on your seven-step project, you'll have solved a community problem—not only in the short term, but for years into the future—and you’ll be eligible for college scholarships!
