Help them navigate the pathway to success.
Before a Girl Scout sails around the world or designs their own fashion line, they need to believe they can do it.
Invest in our local Girl Scouts and make those dreams a reality. Then watch as they discover new interests and chase their dreams—with the pride of knowing you helped make it possible.
An investment in Girl Scouts is an investment in making our community better, stronger, and brighter.
Your gift will be used to ensure local Girl Scouts gain the skills and confidence needed to accept challenges, overcome obstacles, and become leaders. Plus, every dollar you give stays right here in our community.
Our Council accepts cash, checks, credit cards, or gifts of stock. Checks should be made out to Girl Scouts of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Please send your donation to Girl Scouts of the Commonwealth of Virginia P.O. Box 11166 Richmond, VA 23230.
100% of every dollar donated stays with our Council to support our local Girl Scouts.
If you have any questions, or would like Girl Scouts of the Commonwealth of Virginia donation envelopes for use at a memorial service, please call 804-746-0590 and ask for the Fund Development Team.

Gifts of cash
If you itemize, you can lower your income taxes simply by writing us a check. Gifts of cash are fully deductible - up to a maximum of 50% of your adjusted gross income.
Gifts of stock
If you own stock, it is often more tax-wise to contribute stock than cash. This is because a gift of appreciated stock generally offers a two-fold tax savings. First, you avoid paying any capital gains tax on the increase in value of the stock. Second, you receive an income tax deduction for the full fair market value of the stock at the time of the gift.
Gifts of life insurance
A gift of life insurance can provide a significant charitable deduction. You could purchase a new policy or donate a policy that you currently own but no longer need. To receive a deduction, designate Girl Scouts of the Commonwealth of Virginia as both the owner and beneficiary of the life insurance policy. Check with your insurance agent for the details.
Bequests
Girl Scouts of the Commonwealth of Virginia can be named as beneficiary in your will in any of the following ways:
- An outright gift
- With a designated dollar amount of a percentage of the value of your estate, or
- GSCV can be named as a remainder beneficiary to receive funds only after specific sums have been paid to individual beneficiaries.
Check with your estate attorney to learn more.
