18. Focus on the girls who will be helped! Be a good role model – donate yourself, and highlight your own donation amount. Plan to ask everyone to contribute at your 2 nd or 3 rd parents meeting – make it fun! Make sure they know their daughter gets a special fun patch for a $25 donation. Ask for a specific amount of at least $25.

Nudge additional contributions from parents, and their extended families, via social media (Facebook, Yahoo!Groups) Send an email follow-up with the link for donations via our Online Council Store ( store.citrus-gs.org ) Share stories of the girls who’ve benefitted by GIFTs donation – Girl Scouts Changes Girls’ Lives!
