The Bronze, Silver, and Gold Awards represent the highest achievements in Girl Scouting. These awards challenge girls to identify an issue in their community and take steps to address it, demonstrating leadership, planning, and a commitment to service. The Bronze Award is typically earned by Junior Girl Scouts, the Silver Award by Cadettes, and the Gold Award by Senior and Ambassador Girl Scouts. Each award requires a significant dedication of time and effort, culminating in projects that create lasting change.
