Girl Scouts welcomed a gift of $50,000 from the Bechtel Charitable Trust to fund Girl Scout programming throughout Scott County!
"Bechtel Charitable Trust has been a consistent supporter of the Girl Scout mission since 2005," says Diane Nelson, CEO of Girl Scouts of Eastern Iowa and Western Illinois. “Their support keeps our programming strong and helps us to shape the next generation of leaders.”
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.
