Volunteers

Girl Scouts of Kansas Heartland is currently looking for volunteers in our communities. These volunteers can be parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, friends and neighbors. The types of opportunities are varied and there are enough possibilities to reach many different interests.

We are always looking for troop leaders to guide young girls on their exciting journey through Girl Scouts. Beyond the troop, we need leadership on all levels including our board of directors, clerical work, work at one of our Girl Scout sites helping to prepare for troops and summer activities. Many of you have special talents, skills and interests from super gardener to engineer, from pilot to musician, or from CEO to international studies teacher to share with girls.

Ready to share your talents with tomorrow's leaders? Click here.

   


Helpful Hints to Submitting the Troop Finance Summary PDF Print E-mail

If you experience difficulty submitting the Troop Finance Summary online, please try the following:


1. If you fill in your information, hit "Submit," and can still see the form, it did not submit successfully. You will most likely see large red letters next to empty/incorrect fields that direct you how to enter the information. For example, it may say "Letters Only" if you entered numbers into the Service Unit name, or "Please Select Just One" if you selected two Troops, or "Required Entry" if you did not fill something in that is required. Please fill in all required fields correctly and hit Submit again.

2. If you hit "Submit," and see a screen that says, "Thank you for submitting your Finance Summary. If you do not receive an email confirmation in regards to your submission please contact Parrishon Marshall at (316) 684-6531," this means your form has successfully submitted.

3. If you do not receive an e-mail confirmation, it may be that you didn't enter your own e-mail on the form, or you may have entered it incorrectly. It could also mean that the confirmation e-mail went to your Junk Mail.

4. If you have tried unsuccessfully to submit an electronic form, and it's not due to incomplete/incorrect fields, please fill out the paper form and fax it to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it at (316) 684-4141.

Did you need a role model when you were a teen? Imagine how much you could offer girls ages 11 to 17 knowing what you know now. The network of Girl Scouts ages 11 to 17 needs young adult volunteers, both women and men, who can relate to their interests and concerns. Girls often relate better to those close to their own age. Make a difference, help with camps, speak at troop meetings, be an assistant Leader! Whatever time you have, we have a position for you.
