"during any kind of challenging circumstance girl scouts shine brightest" for more than a century young women have been finding unique ways to change their community through the girl scouts program.

Covi?19 may be reaching every corner of our community?

But so are the girls in green.

"i've just been encouraged by girl scouts continuing to be girl scouts.

That is what we do, we make the world a better place."

From mask making?

To providing free helmets for kids in the neighborhood?

Tr?state girl scouts are filling the needs they see around them.

"hi everyone..

.thank you for all the book donations."

1?yea?old jamyah johnson?

Is collecting and sending out books.

"my mom bought me a few books to keep me busy.

Then i thought about all the other kids since the libraries are closed might not have books to read."

Through social media and word of mouth jamyah is shipping inspiring stories to children across the tr?state.

"helping children who wouldn't normally have access to books in grades ?5.

All of the books jamyah is sending out feature children of color as the leading characters and are authored by african american authors and illustrators."

"and our girl scouts certainly haven't forgotten about our health care workers putting in those long hours.

They are asking you to help them share both those tasty cookies and a smile."

"just to have that sense of normal."

By extending their cookie share program?

Girl scouts of sout?west indiana have already been able to deliver 1?

Cases of tasty cookies to the deaconess women's hospital.

"i think they were just so shocked and surprised and thankful.

Anytime you see girl scout cookies, it makes you smile; that is just what they do."
