Girl Scout Birthday is observed worldwide every March 12 to celebrate the founding of the Girl Scouts of the USA by Juliette Gordon Low in 1912. On this day, Girl Scouts across the nation commemorate the organization, which began with just 18 members and has grown to over 3.5 million girls and around 800,000 adult volunteers. The Girl Scouts movement focuses on instilling values such as fairness, honesty, courage, character, compassion, confidence, and sisterhood through various outdoor activities, including camping and community service. Participants often engage in earning badges by acquiring practical skills and are involved in charity work. The organization is also a member of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts, which includes over 10 million members in 145 countries.
