New for 2021, the Gulfcoast Council is looking for businesses, organizations, and individuals to surprise area troops by buying out the complete inventory of a cookie booth or becoming a major product program donor by purchasing 100 or more boxes of cookies. Customers may also purchase cookies to be donated to “Hometown Heroes.” Local Girl Scouts will deliver donated cookies to essential workers and veterans and partner with Support Our Troops®, who will ensure that cookies are delivered to deployed military personnel. “We’re asking for support from the communities we serve in order to overcome the challenges our troops are facing this cookie season due to the ongoing pandemic,” said council CEO Mary Anne Servian. To arrange a cookie booth buyout or for more information, contact Kelly McGraw at kmcgraw@gsgcf.org or 921•5358 ext. 318. The GS Cookie Program runs through Saturday, March 21, with preorders currently underway and cookie booth sales beginning Friday, February 19. To locate a cookie booth, enter a zip code at www.girlscoutcookies.org.
