The Juliette Low World Friendship Fund (JLWFF) was created by Girl Scouts of the USA to support girl's travel and participation in international training and events. So, the JLWFF would affect Girl Guides in Australia by allowing Girl Scouts from the USA to travel to Australia and other places to meet and make friends with Australian Girl Guides.
Girl Guides Australia sell Girl Guide Biscuits (cookies). Girl Scouts Overseas from the US may also be selling GSUSA cookies.
It is unlikely that members of the Figi Girl Guides sell cookie products. Not all World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS) member organizations sell cookies as a national organization. Some national organizations, such as Girl Guides of Canada, Girl Scouts of the USA, and Girl Guides Australia Inc., do sell cookie (biscuits in Australia) products. Members of Girl Scouts Overseas sell cookies as members of the Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA) in other countries.
Girl Scouts of the USA sell Girl Scout Cookies. Girl Guides of Canada sell Girl Guide Cookies. Girl Guides Australia sell Girl Guide Biscuits (cookies).
In other countries, girl scouts may be known by different names. For example, in the United Kingdom, they are called Girlguides. In Canada, they are called Girl Guides. In Australia, they are known as Girl Guides or Girl Scouts.
The equivalent of Girl Scout Cookies in Tasmania is Girl Guide Biscuits, sold by Girl Guides Australia, Inc.
Each World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS) member country/organization sets their own guidelines for money earning projects for their members, so members of Organisation Nationale des Guides et des Eclaireuses du Liban [National Organization of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts of Lebanon] probably do not sell cookies. Some national organizations, such as Girl Guides of Canada, Girl Scouts of the USA, and Girl Guides Australia Inc., do sell cookie (biscuits in Australia) products. Members of Girl Scouts Overseas sell cookies as members of the Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA).
Girl Guiding in Australia began as early as 1909 as various groups such as the Tasmanian Girl Peace Scouts and the Australian League of Girl Aids. In 1926 a council was formed to link the many state associations together as the Girl Guides of Australia.
According to the Girl Guides Australia web site, over 550,000 packets of Girl Guide Biscuits will be sold in 2012. No information can be found about biscuit sales for GirlGuiding New Zealand.
