Ways to Give

Here at Girl Scouts Western Pennsylvania, we want to make investing in girls as easy as it can be. Large or small, every donation makes an impact in the lives of girls and in our communities.

All donations are tax-deductible, and you can designate your contribution toward a specific purpose: for financial assistance for Girl Scouts in need, to send a girl to camp, for camp and facility improvements, or to go to the area with the greatest need.

There are many different ways you can contribute, and giving is easy. Here's how:

Online or By Mail
Make a donation of any amount, at any time.

The Promise Circle: Our Monthly Donation Program
The Promise Circle celebrates donors who make a recurring monthly donation of $5 or more. It's a simple way to make a big impact and help us carry our mission forward! Join the Promise Circle.

Financial Assistance Campaign
Help more families experience the amazing benefits of Girl Scouting by contributing to our Financial Assistance Campaign. Simply add on a gift amount of your choice when you renew your membership or sign up as a new member online.

Planned Giving—Juliette Gordon Low Society
A planned gift to Girl Scouts Western Pennsylvania in your will or estate plan will leave a lasting legacy for future generations of Girl Scouts. Charitable gift annuities (CGA's) are also available through Girl Scouts of the USA—please contact us to learn more.

Planned-gift donors will be inducted into the national Juliette Gordon Low Society to recognize and celebrate your gift during your lifetime and receive an official pin.

To inform us of your planned gift, please fill out this brief form.

For more information, contact Sandra Bernardi Hathazy at sbernardi@gswpa.org or 412-594-2201.

Please visit legacy.girlscouts.org for additional resources on planned giving from Girl Scouts of the USA.

Workplace Giving
Many employers participate in the United Way Annual Campaign, which allows employees to contribute to a charity of choice through payroll deduction. Also, many companies will match their employee’s charitable contributions through matching gifts programs.

Corporate Giving & Sponsorships
Businesses and organizations can invest in girls by sponsoring our annual signature event, participating in the Educational Improvement Tax Credit program, or contributing through employee matching gifts.
