Cookie University
Learn about the art of selling cookies with Girl
Scouts of Hawaii at Cookie University! Cookie University is an
annual fun-filled event focused on Girl Scout learning, from
financial literacy, cookie marketing to guest speakers sharing their
expertise! After the event, Girl Scouts will feel as prepared as
ever to forge ahead into the new Cookie Season.
This year, Cookie University will take place on January 11th for Oahu, Kauai and Hawaii Island, and January 18th for Maui.
Registration for the event will open on October 15th and close on December 1st.
Cookie Program Badges & Pins
The Girl Scout Cookie Program is so much more than a box of cookies. It’s a programmatic approach to teaching the five skills and the foundation of the Girl Scouts Entrepreneurial Pillar. When girls sell Girl Scout Cookies, they practice goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills, and business ethics as they learn to think like an entrepreneur. Girl Scouts can earn badges and pins each year they run their own Girl Scout cookie business.
Cookie Program Badges & Pins
These newly earned cookie and entrepreneur badges are available in the Volunteer Toolkit (VTK).
Cookie Entrepreneur Family Pins
Cookie Entrepreneur Family Pins
Cookie Season is more fun with family! The Cookie Entrepreneur Family pin collection helps girls learn essential skills and how to think like entrepreneurs with support from their families. Each Girl Scout level has its own set of fun and educational requirements to help families guide their Girl Scout as she runs her own cookie business year after year. Girls can earn all 13 pins in the collection – one unique pin for every year they participate!

Cookie Boss Patch Program
Girl Scouts will build their cookie businesses through the Cookie Boss Patch Program. This program is an awesome way for cookie bosses to learn how to communicate, organize and potentially execute a thought-out business partnership. Girl Scouts not only have the opportunity to learn about business development, but they can also translate their plan into a large-scale cookie donation.
While it is not required that Girl Scouts close the deal with a business to earn the patch, Girl Scouts must complete one proposal and complete the Wufoo Form survey to receive their Cookie Boss Patch. Businesses who partner with Girl Scouts not only get to keep or donate delicious Girl Scout Cookies, but they receive special benefits. Girl Scouts who close the deal receive credit for the full number of boxes in eBudde, helping them to reach higher levels of rewards.
The following pages will walk you through the four “Ps” for building strong Cookie Boss: Prospect, Proposal & Pitch, Procure & Partner.

February 21-23, 2025
Girl Scouts who sell 100 or more packages during National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend will earn a 2025 National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend patch! Sales can be from a combination of individual sales, booth sales, and Digital Cookie, but must be sold during this weekend. Troop Cookie Managers will select this patch quantity in eBudde during final reward submission.
Booth VIP Sticker
Girl Scouts across Hawai`i work so hard at their booths and deserve the recognition for developing their customer service and people skills. What are they? Anytime a Council staff member or special Council partner comes across a cookie booth, they will have special stickers to hand out to each of the Girl Scouts at that booth. If they ran out because they came across lots of booths that day, reach out to the Council Cookie team and they can get you the stickers you need!
