Additional Service Opportunities

1. Birthday Box
   We would like our Girl Scout Troops and Service Units to adopt this project on an annual basis. Birthday boxes can be built and delivered to various agencies throughout the year. One of the activities for Girl Scout Birthday Week is to build and distribute birthday boxes in your community. Agencies can be for youth or the elderly, the choice is yours. Listed below is a recipe for a birthday box:

   • 1 festive set of party decorations (streamers, balloons, party hats)
   • 1 birthday gift (child or elderly person, either gender)

   • 1 fun activity to help celebrate (games, music, crafts)
