Happy World Thinking Day 2023

Since 1917, Girl Guides Singapore has been empowering girls and women in Singapore to do amazing things. In 2023, GGS continues to lead and make a difference! On 18 February, GGS set yet another new record. More than 7500 GGS members – girls and leaders – stood together to take the Green Nation Pledge to help make Singapore a green, liveable and climate-resilient home. At GGS, our mission is clear: We prepare girls to handle anything that comes their way. We are committed to instilling life skills and values that equip girls to ‘Speak Out, Speak Up and Take Action’. 2023 is going to be another ground-breaking, adventure-filled year. Our 2023 theme – ‘Our World, Our Peaceful Future’ – encompasses our belief that every girl has a right to live in world with a sustainable future. More than that, we believe that every girl has the potential to be a change-maker – this means, every girl can be empowered with skills and knowledge to help create a sustainable future for herself, her community and our world. Our Brownies, Girl Guides and leaders are all set to take action to build a more peaceful and sustainable world. Come and join hands with GGS in 2023 – with your support, we can double our efforts and impact to create a brighter future for our world!

Calling all 17-25 year olds !

Young Adults Go Camping!

The Young Adults (YA) calendar is packed with activities round the year to develop young women to reach their fullest potential! Our recent YA Training Camp (YATC) at Camp Christine from 22-24 December 2022 was an amazing time of acquiring new skills, building stronger bonds and making new friends.

 
 
 

Learning to Lead

Having YAs participate in camp activities as patrols is a unique way for YAs to acquire a broad range of collaboration and leadership skills. They learnt to work together when carrying out their duties and also picked up good communications skills, like how to properly relay instructions as part of camp-craft safety. Developing these skills will benefit them in school, at home or at work, and also when they lead and interact with younger girls in GGS.

Accomplishing Challenges

The YAs explored the outdoors and tackled the BP Eco Challenge. They had fun braving the different land and water obstacles, whilst learning the importance of working together and encouraging each other as they completed the challenges.

 
 
 
 

Creating Lasting Memories

Over 3 days and 2 nights, the YAs worked harmoniously together to ensure their camp went well. In the process, they formed stronger bonds with each other and the wider YA and GGS community.

 
 
 

YA events, such as the YATC, are designed to equip and empower young women with skills, knowledge, and a network of supportive peers to go through adventures in life. Check out what Young Adults can offer you today!

 
 
 

GGS Cookie Gifting Project – Full Story

The GGS Cookie Gifting Project has been specially designed with the dual purpose of raising funds to support GGS’ mission of developing girls, as well as enabling us to give back to the community.

Generous donations towards our Limited-Edition Tropical Bird Chocolate Mint Cookies allowed us to gift the cookies to healthcare workers at SGH during Nurses Day on 20th July as a way of thanking them for their unwavering support and dedication.

GGS would like to extend our thanks to corporate donors who supported our corporate cookies sales and via Giving.sg in 2022.

GGS Corporate Cookies are available at $25 per tin. Orders of 60 tins and above enjoy free delivery to one location.
