Normally, this time of year, young ladies go door-to-door, send flyers to work with their parents, or set up tables outside grocery stories to sell their Girl Scout cookies.
But in a world of social distancing, organizations across the globe are looking for new ways to interact with each other while still practicing the recommendations from health officials.
That applies to the Girl Scouts, too. That’s why they’re going online to sell Girl Scout cookies.
That means you can get your Samoas and Thin Mints or your Lemon-ups and Tagalongs delivered right to your door with the proceeds going to help your local troop.
You can even donate Girl Scout cookies to first responders, volunteers, and local causes in need with the click of a button.
Shoppers need to buy a minimum of four boxes for shipping, but that minimum does not apply to donated Girl Scout cookies. And yes, just like before, you can purchase cookies to benefit a specific Girl Scout and her troop.
