Girl Scouting is a Worldwide Movement that provides girls and young women, aged 4 to 21 years, a non-formal progressive educational program based on spiritual values and the ideal of service.

gspThe Movement is open to persons of diverse creeds and races and cuts across social barriers.

Membership is voluntary. The Movement is non-political but any member as an active citizen, may take a stand/ action on political and legislative matters. It is independent and non-governmental but it participates in nation building through cooperation with the home, school, church, governmental units and other agencies.

While girls are the focus of the Movement, adult volunteers also enjoy many stimulating opportunities. These adults hold ultimate responsibility for the Movement.

Self-training through enriching experiences in Girl Scouting influences girls and young women into becoming responsible, decisive, useful citizens, heard, respected and acknowledged in a changing world.

GSP Out-of-Doors

Girl Scouts learn to be self-reliant and flexible to cope with new challenges, and fast changes as best experienced outdoors with nature. They learn to survive and do housekeeping in the open air under canvas tents, under the trees, under the sun and under the stars.

Thus, they could build fires, cook simple food without utensils, walk long distances, climb mountains, swim, fish, hunt and gather fruit and make shelters as needed.

In the modern world, they face vehicles to drive, machines to operate, and use radios, computers and various devices with ease.

They learn to respect nature, to live comfortably without modern conveniences.
