Kowalski's Groceries for Good Causes Did you ever think that your weekly grocery shopping bill could help raise money for the Girl Scout Council? Kowalski's markets have a program called "Groceries for Good Causes" and the Girl Scout Council of Greater Minneapolis has been given the opportunity to take part. At each of the locations within our jurisdiction that are listed below, there are clear lucite boxes on the wall as you exit the store. Simply place your receipt in the box with our name and a percentage of your bill will come back to the council. The more receipts we have in the box each month, the larger percentage we get. Spread the word to everyone you know to help Girls Grow Strong.

With your help, we will be able to maintain the camp and its existing programs. Engraved bricks will be placed in paths around Lake Barbara.
