The Girl Scout Cookie Program is an iconic Girl Scout tradition dating back more than 100 years — all the way to 1917—just five years after Juliette Gordon Low formed the first Girl Scout troop. Today, more than 900,000 girls across the United States participate in the cookie program — having fun, developing valuable life skills, and making their communities a better place every step of the way.
100% of funds generated from this program go toward helping Girl Scouts of Ohio’s Heartland build important skills by providing activities and opportunities through our programs.
What Girl Scouts Learn
While participating in the 2023 Girl Scout Cookie Program, Girl Scouts will challenge themselves and practice the 5 Skills while earning rewards and funds for their troops.

Getting Ready
Your troop might be ready to participate in the 2023 Girl Scout Cookie Program if:
- You have more than two volunteers and five Girl Scouts registered for the 2022-2023 Girl Scout Year.
- Girl Scouts’ families and caregivers regularly read and respond to troop communications and participate in troop activities.
- The troop has a bank account on file or has two volunteers who are able to go together to open one.
- Your Girl Scouts are excited to set and meet goals and earn great rewards!
Not sure if your troop is ready to participate? Talk to your membership manager about what you need to do or email productprogram@gsoh.org to learn more about participating as individuals instead.
