Launching Leadership: The Campaign For Their Future
For nearly a century, Girl Scouts has been the foremost organization to champion girls. In October 2009, Girl Scouts Eastern Washington & Northern Idaho (GSEWNI) embarked on Launching Leadership: The Campaign for Their Future, a strategic fundraising initiative to advance a new program framework to include science, technology, engineering, and math (S.T.E.M.); promote career pathways and girl advocacy; rebuild the 70-year-old lodge at Camp Four Echoes; and enhance financial sustainability. Launching Leadership has received extraordinary support from new and long time volunteers and donors. A gift of $1.7 million helped to replace the 70-yearold lodge at Camp Four Echoes. This transformational gift also enabled GSEWNI to leverage additional donations and increase funding available for programming in S.T.E.M., thereby exposing young women to future career opportunities. CCS is proud to have partnered with GSEWNI on the planning study and the advised Launching Leadership Campaign.
