Under "Connect," girl scouts collaborate with other people, locally and internationally, to make a positive difference in the world. Under "Take Action," Girl Scouts continually take actions to make the world a better place. In this process, Girl Scouts "earn badges, sell cookies, go on exciting trips, explore the outdoors, and participate in projects that have a positive impact on others.
