2010 Girl Scouts of Kansas Heartland Annual Report

2010annual report

What Did You Do Today? It’s such a simple question, and yet very revealing. If you ask the average person on the street that question, you may hear a mundane answer. But ask a Girl Scout and you’ll hear: “We toured the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center.” “I learned that true beauty lies within.” “I coordinated a blood drive in my community.” Simply put, Girl Scouts get to do more. More exploration, more self-discovery, and more community building. With the support of generous donors, foundations and corporations, we look forward to giving girls even more opportunities in the years to come. The following stories reveal how Girl Scouts are using the three keys to leadership (discover, connect and take action) to make our world a better place. We hope you’re inspired by their answers to the question: “What did you do today?” Yours in Girl Scouting, Allison Ochoa, Shelly Chenoweth Chairman of the Board Chief Executive Officer, Girl Scouts of Kansas Heartland Girl Scouts of Kansas HeartlandNational Brand LaunchGirl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA), with the iconic organization as part of the organization’sone of the most well known and and communicate the power comprehensive transformationwell loved organizations in the girls have to change the world that began in 2004, is composednation, implemented a nation- through Girl Scouting.

Starry–Eyed Dreams Come True at NASA Girls in Space Program While many girls their age spend their time looking down at cell phones and iPods, Girl Scouts Allison Stukey (Wichita) and Shelbey Logan (Salina) spend most of their time looking up—at the stars. Allison and Shelbey, along with volunteers Fred Gassert and Brindi Stables, made up one of only 10 Girl Scout Council teams (out of 109) selected to attend a Girls in Space program at Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) in Greenbelt, MD in July 2010, to learn about NASA’s Science Mission Directorate (SMD). Upon their return, these Girl Scouts were charged with developing their own Girl Scout Astronomy Clubs, giving future generations of girls the opportunity to reach for the stars. Allison discovered astronomy, her true passion, not whileTop: Allison Stukey (L)and Shelbey Logan (R) sitting in a classroom or surfing YouTube.

We got to see the Leonid meteor shower. It was so cool! With Girl Scouts, I’ve also had the opportunity to visit the Cosmosphere in Hutchinson many times, and I’ve even got my grandparents, aunt and uncle more interested in NASA and in space in general.”6 girl scouts of kansas heartland | 2010 annual report

In partnership with the Dove Self–Esteem Fund,a new curriculum resource was developed to help improve girls’ media literacy skillscalled It’s Your Story, Tell It!, the third in the journey book program series.In addition to developing programming for girls, GSUSA worked closely withCongresswomen Tammy Baldwin (D—WI) and Shelley Moore Capito (R–WV) tointroduce the Healthy Media for Youth Act (H.R. 4925). This bill supports medialiteracy programs and youth empowerment groups, facilitates research on how imagesof women and girls impact youth, and establishes a National Taskforce on Women andGirls in the Media.Over the course of the next two years, Girl Scouts of Kansas Heartland will beconducting community conversations around the Council to educate and inform thepublic about the issue, in addition to working with state and local elected officials.1.
