What is the Fall Product Program?
The Fall Product Program is an easy, fun way to earn troop funds for this year’s activities and future adventures. By marketing magazines and Girl Scout branded nuts and chocolates to family and friends, a Girl Scout learns and develops entrepreneurship skills. They learn to set goals, make decisions, manage money, develop people skills, and learn business ethics.
Why should I participate in the Fall Product Program?
The Fall Product Program is one of the easiest and fastest ways to earn start up funds for your troop. Many of you have never participated and we are really hoping to get everyone onboard this year. The Fall Product Program is a great way to get your girls ready for cookie season!

* Girl Scouts San Diego Cares: GSSD Cares is a great way for customers to give back to the community. Girls collect donations (in $7 increments) and Girl Scouts San Diego takes care of delivering the product. Each donation is credited to the girl, counting towards her rewards, and the troop earns $1.75 in troop proceeds per donation item sold. Girl Scouts San Diego will donate products to organizations in San Diego and Imperial counties that are making a positive community impact. Information about this year’s recipients organizations will be available on the GSSD website in October.
