1. We are all inclusive. What is especially important about the
Girl Scouts’ rich history of supporting women’s leadership is their insistence
on being a voice for all girls, regardless of their background or neighborhood.
Girl Scout membership does not discriminate on any basis, including race,
ethnicity, sexual orientation, or gender identity.

Innovation Award from the X Prize Foundation last month, it scored the scouts a
provisional patent.

would like to see in video games and make selections accordingly—choosing
avatars, storylines, and other video game features.
