To receive the Go-Getter award, a recipient must be bold and determined to succeed. Whatever the obstacle, our go getter will figure it out, get back up and try again. The Go Getter displays vision and ambition, jumps on board with Girl Scout opportunities, and is often involved in multiple Girl Scout projects.
Recipient: Dakota Red Corp
Community Partners
With the critical support of program partners and sponsors, Girl Scouts prepares girls to practice a lifetime of leadership, with access to new skills and experiences that develop the courage, confidence, and character they need to tackle whatever comes their way.
G.I.R.L. Awards
Annually, we honor the donors and community partners who make our program possible! Our Girl Scout Investor awards center around the G.I.R.L that we use to describe the DNA of a Girl Scout – Go Getters, Innovators, Risk Takers and Leaders.
