You can make a difference in the life of a girl! In combining our four councils together to form Girl Scouts of Northern Illinois, we are fortunate to be able to provide additional opportunities to all of our girls. Girl Scouts of Northern Illinois provides council-sponsored program events that are offered across our council jurisdiction. Your gift will help to support these opportunities available to all girls, including six camps located in Northern Illinois and Wisconsin that are open for their use. Building leaders is always a good investment. 
Family Partnership It takes approximately $275 to provide one year of program activities for each of the nearly 22,000 Girl Scouts in Girl Scouts of Northern Illinois (GSNI). The proceeds from the Girl Scout cookie sale and fall product sale programs fall far short of that amount. In addition, we are trying to take the burden of funding Girl Scout program off of the shoulders of the girls. That is why we turn to our Girl Scout families to help to make the Girl Scouting experience complete! Thank you to our 2009-2010 family partnership donors. 
Annual Fund Girl Scouts make a tremendous difference in the communities in which they live. They truly strive to make our world a better place. Without the help of friends, GSNI could not provide the Girl Scout program it’s nearly 22,000 girl members. Each fall, an appeal is made to the Board of Directors, lifetime members, friends of the council and staff members. Matching Gift Many companies match employees’ gifts to charitable organizations. Additionally, some employers will also donate dollars to the charitable organization for volunteer hours served by their employees. 
Gift-in-Kind Business owners may give a gift-in-kind by offering a service for free or for a discounted price. For example, a printer may choose to print one issue of a publication free of charge. Event Sponsorships Available Girl Scouting develops leaders for today and tomorrow! We need your support to give girls the opportunities to Discover, Connect, and Take Action to gain the important leadership skills they need to become the business leaders of the future! GSNI holds many special events each year to raise the funds to provide impactful services to the over 22,000 girls in our council. We invite our local business community to partner with GSNI and sponsor these events which include many useful benefits for your business, along with the satisfaction of helping girls achieve their goals. Your sponsorship partnership with GSNI is a wise business investment!
