Celebrating Girl Scouts on Coins
March 12, 2026
March 12 is an annual holiday known as National Girl Scout Day, celebrating the organization that was founded in Savannah, Georgia, by Juliette Gordon Low on March 12, 1912, and has enriched and empowered generations of females. Low brought 18 girls together to hold the first Girl Scout meeting in 1912, and in the decades that followed millions more would join in community service projects, outdoor adventures, and leadership training – all with the aim of building confidence and courage in young girls. More than a century and countless Thin Mint cookies later, the Girl Scouts boast some 2.5 million members across the United States and around the world.
