What's the Concern About Funding Girl Scout Councils and GSUSA?
Girl Scouts USA (GSUSA) recently promoted pro-abortion politicians, Senator Wendy
Davis and HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, as women to be honored for their
accomplishments in 2013. Many other pro-life concerns exist about the Girl Scout
organization including:
GSUSA, with over 2 million girl members, maintains relationships with many pro-abortion
advocacy groups.
Girl Scouts’ curriculum for girls, sold and promoted by every local Girl Scout council,
recommends pro-abortion role models/organizations such as Betty Friedan, Gloria Steinem,
Geraldine Ferraro, Hillary Clinton, Amnesty International, Population Council, ACLU, National
Organization For Women (NOW) and others.
GSUSA and local Girl Scout councils connect girls to resources promoting abortion rights and
inappropriate sexual content via official Girl Scout social media accounts.
Across the country, local Girl Scout councils honor and promote abortion rights advocates and
pro-abortion politicians; suggest girls work with organizations that fight for abortion on
demand; and invite girls to attend events related to abortion rights advocacy and other
controversial issues.
GSUSA is the largest member organization of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl
Scouts (WAGGGS), making up a third
of its 10 million members worldwide and paying
approximately 1.5 million dollars annually to WAGGGS based on the number of registered
GSUSA members.
WAGGGS, which states that "anyone who is a Girl Guide or Girl Scout is automatically a
member of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts," aggressively promotes youth
reproductive/abortion and sexual rights, specifically on behalf of its 10 million members.
Where Does Girl Scout Cookie Money Go?
A girl's troop keeps an average of just 10 to 20 percent of the money she collects from selling
cookies.
The local council receives an average of 65 to 75 percent of the money collected by all local
troops.
GSUSA collects a royalty payment based upon their licensed trademark on every box of
cookies produced. Consider that 200 million boxes of cookies are sold annually and the
cookie licensing payments account for 5 to 7 percent of GSUSA's budget. This amounts to
upwards of 5 million dollars in funding for GSUSA every year.

Be informed: What Girl Scouts USA does with their cookie 'dough'
January 28, 2014
As Girl Scouts USA begins its annual cookie sale, I am asking you to consider what the organization supports with all that dough.
Christy Volanski is the mother of two former Girl Scouts who created the website Speak Now Girl Scouts to expose the link between the group and the Planned Parenthood abortion business.
Recently, Christy wrote a very telling article for LifeNews, What Every Pro-Lifer Needs to Know About The Girl Scouts' Link to Planned Parenthood.
As Christy clearly outlines in her article, "GSUSA will try to assure you that all the proceeds from cookie sales stay local to benefit girls in their community." What they fail to mention is that GSUSA makes millions of dollars each year through licensing fees paid by the baker. It's money like this that goes to promote the Girl Scout's partnership with Planned Parenthood.
Just this month, the Girl Scouts came under fire for tweeting a link to a news story and video that praises pro-abortion Texas state senator Wendy Davis (D-Texas.)
It’s hard to say no to those little girls in the green and brown sashes, but buying Girl Scout cookies serves only to further facilitate a very liberal pro-abortion agenda.
When they knock on your door, just say, "No, thank you." No explanation is needed.
