| The Girl Scout Bronze Award is the highest award a Junior Girl Scout can earn. It shows you have made a promise to help others, improve your community and world, and become the best you can be.
The first three requirements of the award help you build skills and will prepare you for the fourth requirement, a Girl Scout Bronze Award Project. Work closely with your Girl Scout leader or Girl Scout advisor in completing these requirements.
The requirements for the award are age-appropriate for girls ages 8-11. The leader or advisor, who works closely with the girl(s) pursuing the award, decides whether the requirements have been met. The leader or advisor can purchase the award directly from the Council Store.
Although there is a Silver and Gold Award Task Group to approve these projects, the Girl Scout Bronze Award was specifically designed so that it does not need to be approved by a council-wide, local or service unit committee to be awarded. Requiring girls ages 8-11 to go through a committee or through more procedures would be inappropriate and could serve to dampen a girl's enthusiasm and commitment once she made the decision to dedicate the time and effort to complete the requirements.
