Bechtel Charitable Trust Supports Girl Scouts
Girl Scouts welcomed a gift of $50,000 from the Bechtel Charitable Trust to support the Girl Scout Movement in Scott County. Their support provides training for volunteers, programs for Girl Scouts, and the resources to make the world a better place – the organization’s mission.
“Bechtel Charitable Trust has been a supporter of Girl Scouts since 2005,” says Diane Nelson, CEO of Girl Scouts of Eastern Iowa and Western Illinois, “Their consistent support is building generations of strong and confident young women.”
To create kind, confident, and competent leaders, the Girl Scout program centers around the outdoors, STEM, life skills, and entrepreneurship. Activities for Girl Scouts are fun and research-backed, with each badge, field trip, and event building independence, creativity, and resilience.
