Union1 Girl Scout District Family Campaign


What is Family Campaign? Family Campaign is a program that encourages families to support Girl Scouting through charitable contributions.
Where does the money go? Capital Investments, Financial Assistance, and Community Outreach.
Click here for more information on Family Campaign.

Our 2006-2007 Family Campaign Goal was $12,000...at the end of the Girl Scout year (Sept 30) our total contribution was $3,666.60 or 30.5% of the goal.

Union 1 has fallen short of it's goal for the past few years even though we are one of the largest and well organized districts in GSHNC. We are going to change that for the 2007-2008 year by getting out the word and asking everyone in our Union 1 Girl Scout family to get involved!

Our 2007-2008 Family Campaign Goal is $13,250 (runs 10/1/07-9/30/08).
We are currently at $3818.00 or 28.8% of our goal.

All checks should be made payble to GSHNC, not Union1.
