Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. (GSUSA) helps girls of courage, confidence and character who help make the world a better place. There are 3.6 million girl and adult members throughout the United States, including U.S. territories, and in more than 90 countries through USA Girl Scouts Overseas. As part of the Girl Scout Law, girls pledge to do their best "to use resources wisely." Girl Scout outdoor and environmental programs such as Linking Girls to the Land help girls become leaders of national and local conservation projects focused on environmental education, volunteer service, outdoor skills development, and career exploration.
