Dream Big Campaign

Our campaign is about raising funds and unleashing the potential of every girl in northern New Jersey.

Our goal is to raise $7 million to invest in girls.

With your partnership, we will...

Activating our transformative hub for sisterhood where girls find the power within, expand what they believe is possible, and prepare to shape the future.

Activating the Girl Scout DreamLab toggle arrow

Our Girl Scout DreamLab opened in Paramus in 2026 - a hub for sisterhood that’s built for girls but open to all. It’s the space where girls turn a lunchtime conversation into a podcast. Where an idea finds mentorship through a CTO of a Fortune 500 company. Where an Instagram trend comes to life during a class in the teaching kitchen.

We built the space. Now we turn it into the place a girl goes to discover what she’s capable of.

Priority 2

Investing in programs that super-charge her natural ambition, equipping girls to innovate, create, lead, and shape the workforce and economy of tomorrow.

Fueling Girls' Ambition toggle arrow

Ambition usually starts with one small discovery: the thing she turns out to be good at. Your investment puts more of those moments in front of her – robotics, entrepreneurship, media production, the outdoors – and then gives her a place to push the limits of that ambition. These are the programs where girls learn to innovate, create, and lead to shape the workforce and the economy of tomorrow.

Priority 3

Increasing access to the core Girl Scout experience, ensuring basic needs such as cost, transportation, and language are covered so more girls and families can say "yes" when asking to participate.

Breaking Barriers toggle arrow

Creating more opportunities for girls and their families to say yes.

Yes to the troop meeting across town, because financial assistance is available. Yes to her first week at camp, because transportation is covered. Yes to spending Saturday at the DreamLab in staff-led programs that do not rely on volunteers.

Your investment is what turns those into real options. When we open the door, she walks through it. Keep it open and she stays.

Priority 4

Investing in our camps, properties, and communities to keep pace with girls and deliver more robust experiences year-round.

Expanding Where Big Dreams Happen toggle arrow

Jockey Hollow Camp in Mendham and Lake Rickabear Camp in Kinnelon have shaped generations of Girl Scouts, and Lake Rickabear is our next major investment. Your support keeps these places in step with the girls using them today: year-round programming, updated facilities, and the kind of weekend a girl is still describing twenty years later.

Invest in Girls. Change the World.
