Volunteer
Volunteering with the Girl Scouts of the Pioneer Council
gives you the opportunity to make a difference in the lives
of girls, the success of families and the growth of your
community.
The true strength of Girl Scouting comes from our adult
volunteers who are committed to helping all girls develop
into strong, confident, capable women.
Volunteering requires no previous experience because we provide
training to all of our volunteers. All it takes is the desire
to help make a difference in the lives of today's girls.
No matter what your skills or interests or how much time you
can spare, Girl Scouting has a place for you. Contact Girl
Scouts of the Pioneer Council for more information on
volunteering or complete our online
volunteer interest form.
