Gold Award Project Ideas for Senior Girl Scouts
The Gold Award is the highest award a Senior Girl Scout can
earn. Many girls, especially those just starting to work on their project,
feel a bit daunted at the task ahead. Often, they wonder what sort of project
they can do to finish their Gold. On this page, I have collected ideas for
different Gold Award projects. However, please remember that guidelines vary
by council, so be sure that whatever project you choose falls within those
guidelines. Some projects may not be acceptable in your council. These are
just suggestions. If you have any suggestions that aren't on this list, send
them to the e-mail address at the bottom of this page. I have only included
ideas on this list that would (as far as I know) be acceptable under my council's
guidelines, which require that the Gold Award project affect a group outside
the Girl Scout community & must have the possibility of being sustainable.
If this does not apply in your council, you may find some very good ideas
on the
Silver Award Project page.
Project ideas are divided by areas of interest. Some may fall under more than one area, but I have included it in only one, in the interest of space.
