Promote Girl Scouts in Your Neighborhood on Nextdoor

Promote Girl Scouts in Your Neighborhood on

is a free, private social network for your neighborhood community to have trusted connections and the exchange of helpful information, goods, and services. If you're not already a part of your neighborhood community, we encourage you to join and post about Girl Scouts regularly. Because it is designed for only local, trusted neighbor communications it is not a platform that Council or GSUSA can effectively advertise.

To join a neighborhood group you must live in the area. If you are a volunteer or a family member of a Girl Scout, we ask that you represent Girl Scouts regularly in the following ways:

? Post fliers about upcoming events, monitor and respond to comments or questions about Girl Scouting ? Look for posts about upcoming neighborhood events to attend on behalf of Girl Scouts. ? Share recruitment messaging, events, and general Girl Scouts information throughout the year. ? Share stories about what your Girl Scout or Troop has been learning, or service projects they're doing

for the neighborhood. Refer to the Volunteer Press Kit and/or the story submission template for tips and examples. For example, publications in the local paper are great content to post on Nextdoor!

When you are promoting Girl Scout opportunities and events, it's best to avoid generalities, and focus on specific events, activities, and troop invites. Below are example messages to use as a starting point ? customize and personalize as you see fit! And use available fliers and graphics at marketing-guidelines#publicity.
