Dear :
Girl Scouts Opportunity of Hoosier 'Capital Council' would like to
invite you to join us in an investment in our future business and
community leaders. Because of your past support, Girl Scouts has been
able to reach out to more of our future leaders-our girls.
Girl Scouts of Hoosier Capital Council has a strong and growing
membership. We are requesting your continued support, of our Annual
Campaign to meet the needs of our growing membership.
Your last gift was ~~~. Please consider an increase in your
contribution to the Girl Scout Annual Campaign.
The Girl Scout program offers an array of benefits to our girls and
adult leaders. Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. commissioned SPEC Associates
(Social Program Evaluators and Consultants, Inc.) to conduct a National
Outcomes Study of the Girl Scout program. The results were Overwhelmingly
positive. Its findings include:
Girl Scouting helps girls build nine personal assets which research
has shown to be essential for children's healthy development and well
being. Girl Scouting unites girls, families, and communities. Girl
Scouting benefits Parent/child relationships. Girl Scouting benefits
volunteers by developing their leadership skills and self-confidence.
Our ability to provide the Girl Scout program to our membership and
reach out to more girls depends on the generosity of a caring community
and companies like . Your investment in Girl Scouting is sure to help
build tomorrow's leaders today
Sincerely,
Marie A Pickens Executive Director
