GIRL SCOUTS
HEART OF NEW JERSEY
Girl Scouts Heart of New Jersey (GSHNJ)’s mission is to build girls of courage, confidence, and character who make the world a better place, achieved through life-changing experiences and a model of collaboration between caregivers, volunteers, and staff.
Westfield United Fund supports GSHNJ’s mission by providing Girl Scouts memberships to troops in underserved communities.
”We are truly grateful for the Westfield United Fund’s continued support, which helps us make Girl Scouting accessible to underserved girls...
We are proud to share that the funding from the Westfield United Fund provided membership to 86 girls and 41 adult volunteers.”
