National Girl Scout Day is celebrated on March 12 each year to honor the founding of the Girl Scouts of the USA. This organization was established in 1912 by Juliette Gordon Low in Savannah, Georgia, with the aim of empowering girls and promoting leadership skills. The day recognizes the contributions of the Girl Scouts in fostering community service, outdoor skills, and personal development among young girls. On National Girl Scout Day, various activities and events are organized to celebrate the achievements of the Girl Scouts and to encourage girls to participate in scouting. Many local troops engage in community service projects, host gatherings, and promote the values of teamwork and friendship that the organization embodies.
