Have a minute? Make a difference!
There are plenty of ways to get involved and make a difference in the lives of New York City Girl Scouts. Short-term volunters assist with fast-paced interactive as well as general program support connected to various Girl Scouting events for girls in K-12th grades. These programs range in size from 25 to 100+ participants throughout the 5 boroughs or at Camp Kaufmann in Holmes, NY.
At a Girl Scout program, you may asist in a variety of ways including running an activity station, supporting a both sale during Cookie Season, providing behind-the-scenes-support, or even leading a temporary troop.
Short-term volunteer roles are the perfect opportunity for those interested in working with youth or developing project management and facilitation skills. Official documentation of volunteer service is available upon request.
Please note, all volunteers must obtain a Girl Scouts membership and clear a background check.

Girl Scout Series Facilitators
Girl Scout Series are 2-6 week programs conducted in partnership with a local school or youth-serving organization. Volunteer facilitators work alongside GSGNY staff to lead extracurricular workshops for current and potential Girl Scouts alike. Workshops involve fun and educational activities that introduce students to some of the core program areas GSGNY has to offer, including robotics, environmental advocacy, and more.
