Girl Scouts and the community are invited to participate in the NEW Rose Community Foundation (RCF) Giving in a Box patch program, taking meaningful steps toward earning their Rose Community Foundation patch. Through engaging, hands-on activities, participants will explore core values with interactive worksheets, identify areas for community improvement, and connect with RCF professionals to understand the logistics of raising awareness, securing funding, and engaging with foundations. This event is an empowering opportunity for young leaders to gain the knowledge and skills to make a positive impact in their communities.

This event is open to everyone in the community. Activities are open-house style and will be running for the full 4:30-6:00 p.m. time frame. You do NOT need to arrive at 4:30 p.m. to complete this program. Generally, the activities take 45 minutes - 1 hour to complete.

The Giving in a Box patch program powered by the Rose Community Foundation curriculum can be found on GSCO's Anytime Activity page. Girls will be completing the meeting 1 out of 3 requirement of the program. This patch program is intended for Juniors - Ambassadors and can be used as a tool to prompt Highest Awards. This community event is open to kids of all ages, but geared towards those in 4th - 12th grade. If you have any additional questions, please reach out to Erin Cook at erin.cook@gscolorado.org.
