Patch of the Month

What is Patch of the Month?Patch of the Month is an opportunity for girls to explore their interests and expand their horizons by working on a new patch each month, created just for Girl Scouts. These patches can be done individually, with a friend, or as a troop. Each program involves a hands-on learning process that engages girls in action and reflection that results in a deeper understanding of concepts and skills and provides the opportunity for girls at all levels to:

Discover: Find out who she is, what she cares about, and what her talents are.

Connect: Collaborate with people, both locally and globally, to learn from others and expand her horizons.

Take Action: Do something to make the world a better place.

Highest Awards CoursesBronze. Silver. Gold. These represent the highest honors a Girl Scout can earn. All three awards give you the chance to do big things while working on an issue that’s captured your interest in a big way.

Whether you want to plant a community garden at your school and inspire others to eat healthily for your Bronze Award, advocate for animal rights for your Sil-ver Award, or build a career network that encourag-es girls to become scientists and engineers for your Gold Award, you’ll inspire others (and yourself).

Plus, as you earn one of Girl Scouts’ highest awards, you’ll change your corner of the world—and maybe even beyond. The possibilities are endless.
