It is the goal of Girl Scouts Western Pennsylvania to communicate the brand promise of Girl Scouts. Girl Scouts gives every girl access to life-changing experiences that inspire her to do something big. Thank you for partnering with us to represent the amazing things that our girls are doing to change the world.
Below are some tools, resources, and information to help you share the Girl Scout brand in our communities.
Using the Girl Scout Brand
Girl Scouts is a beloved, iconic brand. Few brands are strong enough to be identified simply by a color or a shape, but we have both the unique shade of "Girl Scout green" and the singular Girl Scout Trefoil symbol working for us. These much-admired brand elements ensure that any of our branded items can be readily recognized as belonging to Girl Scouts. With everything we create, we aim to stay true to our brand and the values it represents—leadership, sisterhood, and inclusion.
All of us who communicate about Girl Scouts play a role in protecting the brand identity and in using it to spread the word about Girl Scouting!
One of the best ways to understand our brand and recent changes is to complete the Brand Ambassador 101 for Volunteers training in gsLearn. Log into MyGS to access gsLearn.
