Girl Scouts of Northeast Texas is excited to launch our Pilot Programs at the STEM Center of Excellence at Camp Whispering Cedars– and we need your help! As part of our “I Can Be” initiative, we want girls to see and interact with experts from each program’s focus area. We want you to help us show girls they’re capable of more than they ever imagined.

As an “I Can Be” Mentor, you’ll talk up your career, take pictures with girls, and be the role model she’ll always remember. You do not need to prepare anything- simply come and be the face of your career! Click here find out more details about what girls will be doing on a particular date listed below.

Not for you? Let us know if there is another way you’d like to be involved. Do you know someone else that might fit the bill? Please invite them to join us as an “I Can Be” Mentor!
