The purpose of the Boy Scouts of America, incorporated on February 8, 1910,
and chartered by Congress in 1916, is to provide an educational program for
boys and young adults to build character, to train in the responsibilities
of participating citizenship, and to develop personal fitness.
Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. began in Savannah, Georgia, in 1912 with a troop
of only 18 girls. Today, Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. is the world's largest
organization for girls, with over 2.5 million enrolled. Five program age
levels are offered for girls 5 through 17. More than 40 million American
women have been members of the Girl Scouts since its founding. Girl Scouting
today provides a safe, supportive way for girls to participate in projects
involving computers and technology, careers, the environment, personal finance,
and sports.
