We are a girl-led organization that believes in hands-on learning to develop empowered Go-getters, Innovators, Risk-takers, Leaders. Our members participate in a variety of activities & programs that benefit them by fostering a strong sense of self, positive values, challenge-seeking, healthy relationships and community problem-solving. These activities & programs are supported by our four program pillars: STEM, Outdoors, Life Skills and Entrepreneurship (goal setting, financial literacy, business ethics) which includes the Product Sales Program. (continued on Schedule O) When a girl participates in our Product Sale Program (cookies, nuts, candy and magazines), she's part of the world's largest financial literacy program for girls, run by girls. She's building a lifetime of skills and confidence. She learns goal setting, decision making, money management, people skills and business ethics. She discovers that selling cookies is more than just a business - that she can do whatever she puts her mind to, that her decisions matter, and that she can make things happen. Our girls change the lives of those in their community through service projects and outreach, when they put the almost $1,416,459 they earned in proceeds to work. 802674 11303 120472 The Girl Scouts outdoor program at camp is a place to embrace nature, teach critical thinking, introduce the topics of earth sciences and environmental sustainability as well as and create future leaders. GSSEF offers camp programs year-round that promote these essential life skills in the outdoor settings at our two 640-acre camp properties located in Jupiter and Clewiston. Outdoor education and environmental stewardship are core values to the Girl Scout leadership experience for girls. We watch as girls who experience camp and the great outdoors eclipse their peers (who spend little/no time outdoors) in environmental stewardship activism, more readily seek challenges, and are better problem solvers - all critical traits in leadership. (continued on Schedule O)Additionally, GSSEF added outdoor program elements that help girls understand how distraction-free time outside can improve how they feel physically and offer strategies to reduce the symptoms of anxiety and depression, while improving overall self-esteem. Thousands of our members experience unique outdoor programs while staying rooted in the traditions of overnight camping, outdoor cooking, trailblazing, water sports, identifying and encountering wildlife, at our camp properties through camping or attending one of our many programs for girls at every age and skill level. This year 178 girls attended summer resident camp at Camp Welaka over six consecutive weeks. GSSEF served more 2,000 participants at both camp properties in 2023. 253024 39326 236881 Through staff-led troops, GSSEF provides the Girl Scout Leadership Experience to more than 1,765 girls (25% of our total girl membership) in community areas that need it most. These girls are served in community centers, schools and a variety of sites through grant funding and are able to participate in traditional Girl Scout activities like the badge work, advocacy, the Girl Scout Cookie Program and a variety of emotional and behavioral skill-building exercises that develop their self-esteem, confidence and critical life skills. Research has shown that members of staff-led troops experienced improvements in the areas of confidence, communication, interpersonal relationship skills, improved grades, improved school attendance and decreases in school disciplinary action. (continued on Schedule O)The transformative impact of the Palm Beach County Youth Services Department funding has reshaped the landscape of our offerings, leaving an indelible mark on the personal and professional development of 830 girls and 108 adults. This partnership has seen substantial increases across our five key outcomes. Girls now exhibit a strong sense of self, with newfound confidence and positive identities, fostering an ethos of challenge-seeking and the willingness to take appropriate risks. This grant has enabled the cultivation of positive values, ethical conduct, and a genuine concern for others, contributing to the development of healthy relationships and instilling a deep-rooted desire for community problem-solving. At the core of our approach are the four pillars: STEM, Outdoor Stewardship, Life Skills development, and Entrepreneurial Leadership. With a specific focus on DEI, Mental Health Awareness, and Workforce Development, our programs strategically align with these pillars. Notably, the emphasis on career and college readiness skills has manifested in the provision of 20 paid internships with local organizations, a pivotal step in empowering our girls for future success. All girls participating in the Girl Scout Leadership Experience gained valuable life skills and college-readiness skills that aid them in creating more well-rounded lifestyles and stronger prosperity for success. Three in four Girl Scouts now assert they have become leaders in more activities with friends, reflecting a tangible increase in leadership capabilities. An overwhelming 88% report a higher positive sense of self, showcasing the enduring effects of this partnership on the girls we serve. GSSEF's Get REAL! Program, supported by the Florida Department of Education is a 30-week, in-school program for at-risk girls at Broward County Middle Schools. We served 103 girls in the school. This comprehensive program has a three-pronged approach to target the areas of greatest concern and detriment to the success of the girls. First, Get Real! addresses literacy by promoting a reading program comprised of contemporary literature that opens the door to discussing real-life problems and situations. The second component is a character-building course that develops character and self-esteem and strengthens the decision-making skills and autonomy of the girls. The third and final piece of the program is focused on community service and provides a vehicle to return benefit to the community through community service projects designed and implemented by the girls. These three components together present a multi-faceted advance on the difficult issues and situations the girls face daily. Funding provided by the Children's Services Council allows Girl Scout troops to be located in underserved areas where volunteer leadership is extremely challenging in St. Lucie County. GSSEF delivers an interactive combination of programs to 582 girls that includes "PowerUp" (focusing on anti-aggression and bully-prevention), STEM activities (including candy science and career exploration in the technology fields), and healthy living (integrating sessions to boost self-esteem and self-confidence, as well as personal safety, nutrition and fitness. 753202 Other programs and member services. 753202 4359858 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 63 0 60 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 X 20 20 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 FL X X Allyson Maharaj 5618151813 6944 Lake Worth Road Lake Worth FL 33467 Tula Hudson-Miller Chairman 5.00 X X 0 0 0 Linda Strutt Secretary 5.00 X X 0 0 0 Nancy Proffit Member at Large 5.00 X 0 0 0 Malka Cabral Member at Large 5.00 X 0 0 0 Andrea Levenson Member at Large 5.00 X 0 0 0 Geri Emmett Member at Large 5.00 X 0 0 0 Dr Ofelia Utset Member at Large 5.00 X 0 0 0 Dr Tunjarnika Coleman-Ferrell Member at Large 5.00 X 0 0 0 Maria Antuna Member at Large 5.00 X 0 0 0 Kathleen Hillman Member at Large 5.00 X 0 0 0 Beth Galt-Salsamendi Member at Large 5.00 X 0 0 0 Kimberly Kisslan Vice Chair 5.00 X 0 0 0 Katrina Long-Robinson Member at Large 5.00 X 0 0 0 Deborah Johnson Member at Large 5.00 X 0 0 0 Kavita Sahai Member at Large 5.00 X 0 0 0 Christine Seal Treasurer 5.00 X X 0 0 0 LaChish Rigg Member at Large 5.00 X 0 0 0 Denise Valz Member at Large 5.00 X 0 0 0 Kathy Burstein Member at Large 5.00 X 0 0 0 Rhoda Mae Kerr Member at Large 5.00 X 0 0 0 Lisa Johnson Chief Executive Officer 40.00 X 159831 0 7615 Allyson Maharaj Chief Financial Officer 40.00 X 101443 0 4933 Lori Ebinger-Sullivan Chief Operations Officer 40.00 X 113856 0 11166 375130 0 23714 3 0 1 0 0 10971 172558 236686 348663 768878 Program Service Fees 900099 395086 395086 395086 175881 175881 1234470 1306998 -72528 -72528 -72528 82959 172558 160149 -77190 -77190 6569489 2000598 4568891 4568891 Misc.

This pronouncement seeks to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspects of measurement and recognition in accounting for income taxes. It prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position which an entity takes or expects to take in a tax return. An entity may only recognize or continue to recognize tax positions which meet a "more likely than not" threshold. The Organization assesses its income tax positions based on management's evaluation of the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date. The Organization uses the prescribed "more likely than not" threshold when making its assessment. At adoption, the Organization did not record any cumulative effect adjustment, and the Organization did not accrue any interest expense or penalties related to tax positions. There are currently no open federal or state tax years under audit. Part XI, Line 2d - Other Adjustments: Special Events 160,149. Part XI, Line 4b - Other Adjustments: Management Fee 15,069.
