The Girl Scouts of America is a youth organization which describes itself as "the world's preeminent organization dedicated solely to girls".  It was founded it 1912 as a counterpart to the Boy Scouts of America and  follows the same principles set by Robert Bayden-Powell to build self-esteem  and to teach values such as honesty, fairness, courage, compassion, character, sisterhood, confidence, and citizenship through activities including campingcommunity service, learning first aid, and earning numerous badges by acquiring other practical skills.
