ANNA-MARIA CHAVEZ



"Girl Scouts is here to serve ALL girls!" 

 "And we need to reach them at their level. In their faces!" 

"Even one year of Scouts can make a difference in a girl's life." 

"Girls are worth our investment!"
 Anna-Maria Chavez GSUSA CEO

(Posted this morning while Ms. Chavez was speaking.)

I have to say, she was pretty darn wonderful in person!  Tall and in heels, elegant and warm, friendly and caring.  What a great representative to the general public for Girl Scouting.

She "gets it" so intrinsically, and she challenged all of us to reach out, to mentor and help our girls grow and succeed.  She's thrown down the gantlet, to end gender discrimination in a generation.  Wow!  A big job to do, and if every past and present Girl Scout took up her message, I bet it will happen!  I know I'm going to make the extra effort, because our girls are worth it!!!!

I'm very proud to belong to this wonderful organization.  And very happy to be a sister to this (and every) Girl Scout, for sure!
