Support the winner’s ongoing peacemaking work. Winners also participate in a 2-year fellowship group of peacemaking leaders; leadership development program; mentoring and opportunities to actively engage in Peace First€’s mission and work through participation in national and local peace initiatives.

    Requirements:

    Peace First Challenge

    Award:

    The Peace First Challenge is a global call-to-action to all young people to join a community of peacemakers dedicated to finding compassionate solutions to the world’s problems. When you accept the Peace First Challenge, you are invited to develop your own peacemaking project addressing an injustice you care about, and Peace First will support you by providing you with tools and skills, investing in your ideas and sharing your stories and impact with the world.

    Requirements:

    Citizens or legal residents of the United States who are between the ages of 13 and 25 years-old are eligible to join the US Challenge. Additionally, to be eligible to receive a mini-grant, users will have to form a team. Teams will need to register, choose an injustice, submit a suggested solution they want to implement and a plan on how they want to do it. When your team submits the plan, you will indicate how much money you would like to request and what you can provide in terms of in-kind resources.

    The Spirit Scholarship

    Award:

They were committed to ensuring Connie had every opportunity to benefit from scouting and an education, both of which served her well throughout her career. It is in the “spirit” of their wisdom that this scholarship will be awarded to girls who demonstrate academic excellence and uphold the highest ideals of Girl Scouting.

The Recipient must submit verification of their enrollment status at an accredited college or university, current grade-point average (minimum 3.1 on a 4.0 scale) annually to the council by July 1.

Additional Resources

We’ve compiled a list of universities/colleges, foundations, and Girl Scout councils that offer scholarships, awards, and grants for Girl Scouts.

Though the list is updated periodically, be sure to check with your local Girl Scout council for the most recent information for your area. Your council may also offer helpful workshops or other resources to prepare for college.

Remember, earning a Girl Scout Gold Award is an excellent way to give any college or scholarship application that “something extra” to help you stand out from the crowd.
