"Being a top Girl Scout cookie seller gives my troop the money to do the activities we want to do, such as going to the Statue of Liberty, camping, and gardening," she said. "We also get to buy and donate needed supplies to our local homeless shelter with the funds that we raise from cookie sales."
All proceeds from the cookie sales go towards Troop 6000, a first-of-its-kind program launched in 2017. Troops work together to serve families living in temporary housing in the New York City shelter system. This past year, they expanded to serve the influx of asylum-seekers that came into the city.
