Patch Programs
Beyond the various patch programs offered through USAGSO, many overseas communities have created their own patch program to teach visiting Girl Scouts about their overseas community or as a Take Action community service project. Additionally, for many large overseas communities, patch programs have become a money earning activity as USAGSO girls and their stateside sisters complete these patches. Please remember, the patches are organized at the community level and our global team of volunteers help make these great resources available to girls all around the world**!
- Check out our Community Map here that also lists our Patch Programs.
**While USA Girl Scouts Overseas is happy to share the patch programs from our overseas communities, we do not manage the programs nor are we responsible for any aspect of this program. USAGSO does not have access to the patches nor are we able to reimburse you for any costs you have incurred participating in this program. Before participating in the patch program, we recommend that you contact the Patch Program Contact listed on the website to ensure the information is still accurate.
