What is the Fall Product Program?
Our Fall Product Program allows girls
to safely run their own online business while enhancing their entrepreneurial
skills which are an essential part of the Girl Scout Leadership Experience. We make it easy for
your family and friends to support your Girl Scout and her troop while getting
a head start on holiday shopping. Troops can participate completely online or
in-person, and customers have the opportunity to purchase nuts, candy,
magazines and more.
Why participate in
the Fall Product Program?
This program is an integral part of the
Girl Scout Leadership Experience and is a financial literacy program where
girls gain experience with the 5 Entrepreneurial Skills: people skills, money
management, business ethics, goal setting and decision making. Girls
practice these skills while earning rewards and funds for their troop while
providing essential funds to Council programs. Did you know this program
provides vital financial assistance to girls across our Council and supports
our very own Girl Scout Camps in our local area? Participation is important
because this program is designed to prepare our girls and troops for success in
the Girl Scout Cookie Program.

Rewards &

Every girl that

rewards. Each participating troop has the opportunity to kickstart their Girl
Scout funds used for supplies, activities and community service projects.
These troops receive 15% for every item sold in the Fall Product Program.
Opt-out of Rewards
Older-girl troops (Cadette,
Seniors, and Ambassadors) may choose to opt-out of individual girl rewards.
Girls will receive patches, but none of the other rewards. Opt-out troops will
receive an extra 5% in proceeds.
Products
A variety of products may be purchased
online or in-person from any participating Girl Scout. Your favorites are all
there including Chocolate Covered Raisins, Pecan Supremes, Fruit Slices and
this year’s collectible Girl Scout Tin. Customers may also purchase
magazines from hundreds of selections! All of these items make perfect
gifts for your family, friends or teachers.
Care to Share
Care to Share is our Gift of Caring
program where your customers may purchase a treat which will be donated to our local
Hometown Heroes – local first responders, veterans, active military and
front-line workers fighting COVID-19. They really appreciate your donations!
Girls will earn a Care to Share Patch for selling 5 items for the Care to Share
program and troops will still receive proceeds on your donations.
