One of the things I think is really neat about the Girl Scout cookie sales is the ICARE program. If someone doesn't want to eat the cookies, or can't for dietary issues, they can still support the scouts by buying "ICares." The scout still gets credit for a box sold and the actual cookies are sent to military troops serving overseas. Today we all went to Council office for the packing party. Thousands of boxes of cookies were tagged with thank you notes, cards were made, boxes packed, and lots of fun was had. I love that Emma is getting to experience giving back to the community in addition to earning money for her own activities. It's a win-win situation. :)
