No risk, all reward.
Everyone knows we sell cookies in the winter, but did you know we also sell goodies in the fall?
By participating in the Fall Product Program, your Girl Scouts can start earning funds near the beginning of the membership year without having to wait for the Cookie Program! They'll be eligible for sweet rewards and exclusive program opportunities, and they'll get to practice five skills that will last a lifetime: goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills, and business ethics.
The Fall Product Program is fun, low stakes, and can be completely paperless! Check out the resources below for everything you need to get started.

Care to Share Donation Program
The Care to Share donation program is perfect for friends, family, and co-workers who want to support Girl Scouts without purchasing Fall Product for themselves. They'll pay $8 and mark "Care to Share" on the order card or online site. Girl Scouts of Western Ohio will then donate an item to a local food bank in their honor and handle all of the logistics and delivery. Last year, our council donated more than 6,000 items to local food pantries throughout western Ohio.
Plus, when girls collect five donations each, they'll earn a special Care to Share patch!
