MS. PRESIDENT PATCH
|

Sponsor |
Girl Scouts of the
U.S.A. |

GSUSA has teamed up with The White House Project, an organization that is
changing the way people think about women in leadership roles, to create
an exciting new Ms. President Patch for Girl Scouts of all ages.
Girls today have more choices than even before of what they can do when
they grow up. Why not dream of becoming the first Ms. President? Ms.
President, an online participation patch, can be found on the Just for
Girls section of the Girl Scout website at
www.girlscouts.org.
This patch provides an opportunity for girls to experience and
celebrate women who are on the frontlines of government today. Girls can
discover the accomplishments of strong women such as Sojourner Truth and
Sybil Ludington by completing a matching game, or can explore the
endeavors of women who have taken to the campaign trail.
Activities designed to be fun and informative have been developed for
Daisy and Brownie Girl Scouts, Junior Girl Scouts, and Cadette and Senior
Girl Scouts. Patches can be purchased through the council store or by
calling the Girl Scout Center, ext. 141.
