VOTER GIRL PROJECT HAS ITS 7th SUCCESSFUL EVENT WITH GIRL SCOUTS OF NORTHEAST OHIO

Leagues of Women Voters in Northeast Ohio hosted 130 Girl Scouts for the 2023 Voter Girl Project (#votergirl23) on Nov. 12 at Camp Ledgewood in Northeast Ohio. The Voter Girl Project (VGP) created by the League of Women Voters of Kent in 2017 as a collaborative program between LWV Kent (LWVK) and Girl Scouts of Northeast Ohio (GSNEO) Scouts. Voter Girl Projects have started in states from coast to coast. LWVK promoted the VGP at the LWVUS National Convention in June. 

WHAT IS THE VOTER GIRL PROJECT?

The VOTER Girl Project is a fun and rewarding activity in which Leagues collaborate with their local Girl Scout councils. The one-day class is available for all scout levels--from Daisies to Ambassadors--with a curriculum appropriate for each level. (Ambassadors have work outside the class to complete the badge requirements.)

League members use their knowledge of voting and advocacy to help scouts earn citizenship badges that promote the ideals Leagues cherish.

A curriculum guide has been developed by teachers and communicators with backgrounds in diversity and elementary and higher education. You receive marketing materials and operation tips that have been tested.

Best of all, scouts bring to the event their curiosity and determination to learn. Your League develops a high-profile community event that draws interest from media, parents and public officials.

HOW DOES MY LEAGUE START ITS OWN VOTER GIRL PROJECT?

You can get started by purchasing a VOTER Girl Project license from the League of Women Voters of Kent. The license includes a package of files (on a flash drive) that includes all the information you need to plan and conduct your own successful VOTER Girl Project.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

The individual license fee is $157. With that investment, you can create a revenue stream for your League as you build a relationship with your local Girl Scout council and host the event each year. You can get a return on your investment in one year. 

A State Leagues can purchase a license for all Leagues in its state for a one-time fee for $1,000.

WHAT DO I GET?

The purchase of a VOTER Girl Project license entitles you to the following:

  • VOTER Girl curriculum for Daisies, Brownies, Juniors, Cadettes, Seniors and Ambassadors to earn citizenship badges
  • Logos in formats for printing and for use online
  • Artwork for a Girl Scout experience patch
  • Tips for planning and running your VOTER Girl Project event
  • Marketing materials you can adapt

     

Thank you for your interest!
