This summer, Girl Scouts are stepping up to support our furry friends through our Girl Scouts Lend a Paw Summer Service Patch Program! Throughout the summer months, Girl Scouts will collect much-needed items for local animal shelters, including pet food, toys, and supplies for both animals and the shelter itself. Girl Scouts can also get crafty with DIY projects for the animal shelter. Each participating shelter has its own unique wish list, so we encourage troops and individual Girl Scouts to choose a shelter at the start of the program and tailor their donation efforts to that shelter's needs. A list of local shelters, as well as their wish list and their DIY donation requests and guidelines, will be sent out to registered participants at the beginning of the patch program. The program culminates with Girl Scouts Lend a Paw Day, where Girl Scouts will join together at the shelter to present their donations in person and participate in hands-on service projects, as determined by the shelter. Girl Scouts will register for this day as a separate event on the Girl Scout event calendar. These dates and locations will also be released at the beginning of the patch program. This is a fantastic opportunity for Girl Scouts to show compassion, make a direct impact in their communities, and earn a special service patch while doing it! There is no cost for this program. Pre-order the patch only from our Council Shop by August 4th, 2025. Let's Lend a Paw and make this summer one of service and kindness for our furry friends!
