Best Answer

Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA) partners with many organizations to bring program to Girl Scouts. It is up to the girls and their families to determine whether or not they wish to be involved in any program presented by any organization.

None of the money earned from any Girl Scout council-sponsored cookie sale is given to any other group. This does not preclude girls from spending their money locally on program related activities, such as paying their own way to a community event or museum, or funding other legitimate programmatic outings. Girls may also choose to use money earned through product activities to purchase materials for a community action leadership project to benefit the community.

All of the revenue from all cookie sale activities supports the local Girl Scout council where the cookies are sold, including a portion that goes directly to the group selling cookies. The purpose of selling cookies is to help girls develop a wide range of skills and to generate revenue to support Girl Scouting locally.

Misinformation about Girl Scouts has been sent around the internet over the last several years. That information is either (1) false, (2) unfairly edited to imply "guilt by association" or (3) grossly exaggerated to create the appearance of a relationship that does not exist with Planned Parenthood.

There is no organization named "Girl Scouts of America".

Girl Scouts of the USA does not take a position or develop materials on abortion. The role of GSUSA is to help girls develop self-confidence and good decision-making skills that will help them make wise choices in all areas of their lives.

Parents or guardians make all decisions regarding program participation that may be of a sensitive nature. Consistent with that belief, GSUSA directs councils, including volunteer leaders, to get written parental permission for any locally planned program that could be considered sensitive.

Why do you dodge questions about Planned Parenthood and Girl Scouts?

The answer to this question depends on who "you" is. If "you" is Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA), the organization has released a statement about GSUSA's relationship with many other organizations, including Planned Parenthood. Many Girl Scout Councils also have released a statement which can be found on their web sites. If "you" is Answers.com, there are many questions which do not get answered in a timely manner. Questions are answered by thousands of individual contributors. Someone who feels they can give a quality answer has to find the Question and then take the time to Answer it.
