The Opportunity Fund Gives Every Girl The Essential Girl Scout Experience
Together, we can foster growth, abundance, and nurture the potential within every girl.
The Opportunity Fund is a vital source of support that enables Girl Scouts and their families to fully participate in the Girl Scout experience—no matter their financial circumstances or life situation.
Path to Camp
For many Girl Scouts, camp is where adventure begins—the first time they sleep under the stars, conquer a ropes course, or discover their leadership potential. It’s where they gain independence, resilience, and a lifelong love of the outdoors.
But for too many families, camp feels out of reach. Financial barriers, lack of gear, transportation challenges, and unfamiliarity with camp can make it difficult for girls to attend.
Your gift creates a path to camp—covering camperships, transportation, gear, and outreach to ensure more families can say "yes" to camp.
Examples include:
Financial Aid and Assistance for:
- Membership dues
- Uniforms
- Programs, activities, camp, and travel
- Path to Camp for first-time campers
