Troops must have participated in the previous year’s cookie program at 55% participation (the same for troop proceeds) and also commit to participate in the coming Girl Scout Cookie Program at 55% girl participation before being approved for a money-earning project. Exceptions for new troops will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
The troop follows the guidelines in Volunteer Essentials: Money Earning Basics and Additional Group Money Earning sections maintains good financial standing with Council and submits annual Troop Finance Reports.
The Troop Co-Leader fills out this form (below) for council approval four (4) weeks before the activity. NOTE: To enhance collaboration and share pertinent information, Council will inform the Service Unit Manager when an approved money-earning request has been granted.
Council will forward the Approved / Denied GSH Money Earning Request form to the Service Unit Manager and Troop Leadership within 2 weeks of receipt of the request and a duplicate will be attached to the Troop Campaign records.
