Girl Scouts' Highest Awards
Girl Scout Gold, Silver, and Bronze Awards
In
1980, Girls Scouts introduced the Girl Scout Gold Award (for Girl
Scouts 14-18) as its highest honor, along with the Girl Scout Silver
Award (for Girl Scouts 11-14). To receive these awards, girls must
meet requirements that help them prepare for, and complete, a
special project benefiting their communities. Based on requests from
Junior Girl Scouts (ages 8-11), the Girl Scout Bronze Award was
introduced in 2001. Today these three awards are a highlight of the
Girl Scout experience.
 |
The Girl Scout Gold AwardŽ, the highest award in Girl
Scouts, focuses on a 14- to 18-year-old Girl Scout's
interests and personal journey through leadership skills,
career explorations, self-improvement, and service. The Girl
Scout Gold Award was updated in 2004. |
 |
The Girl Scout Silver AwardŽ symbolizes an 11- to
14-year-old Girl Scout's accomplishments in Girl Scouting
and community activities as she matures and works to better
her life and the lives of others. |
 |
The Girl Scout Bronze AwardŽ recognizes that a Junior
Girl Scout has gained the leadership and planning skills
required to follow through with a project that makes a
positive difference in her community. |
