Calling All Girl Bosses Program for Girls (Grades 6-12)
Posted by Girl Scouts of Eastern Pennsylvania on August 6, 2024
Calling All Girl Bosses is a year-long program empowering girls in Philadelphia to lead the change they want to see in their neighborhoods.
Driven by passion, determination, and a desire to make the world a better place, girls will discover their agency to make real sustainable changes in their neighborhoods while working towards the highest awards in Girl Scouting.
Calling All Girl Bosses is open to all girls entering grades 6-12 who live, attend school, or are part of a Girl Scout troop that meets in Philadelphia. Participants do not need to be a current Girl Scout or have previous Girl Scouting experience. The program is FREE for girls.
The program kicks-off in September 2024 and runs through May 2025. Working alongside their peers and with the support of volunteers and mentors, girls will participate in 12 three-hour workshops held at safe locations in the community. Lunch and transportation will be provided for each workshop.
Calling All Girl Bosses culminates at the Girlz Day, Our World, Our Way event on May 17, 2025, where girls will share their Take Action projects with girls and families from across our region. Held at the Pennsylvania Convention Center, Girlz Day will welcome 3,000 participants and will feature inspiring guest speakers, interactive programs tailored to girls of different ages, a hands-on hall of experiences, and girl-focused exhibitors and vendors.
