Ensure the Council's Future

3. Include GSCGM in a charitable trust, a gift annuity, or a pooled income fund, which can provide payments to you during your lifetime.


Benefit the Council Today
A current gift to the Council's Endowment Fund starts to grow immediately and becomes an important source of annual income. Funds are responsibly managed at the Minneapolis Foundation.

Gifts of all sizes are welcome. However, to become a Juliette Gordon Low Society member through endowment giving requires a commitment of at least $1,000. Your endowment contribution may be paid in full or as a multi-year pledge.

Juliette Gordon Low dreamed of "something for all the girls," and in 1912 she formed the first Girl Scout troop. Nurtured by Juliette's personal funding -- she sold her necklace of rare matched pearls for $8,000 to finance operations in the early days -- the Girl Scout movement grew and flourished.

Members of the Juliette Gordon Low Society believe the legacy of Girl Scouting should be preserved for future girls. By including the Council in your estate and financial plans, you can have the satisfaction of supporting Girl Scouts in a meaningful and permanent way.
