Proud Roosevelt Island Mom Joan Rodney reports:

Just wanted to share and pass along to you that Roosevelt Island's very own has been chosen to be featured on MILLIONS of Girl Scout cookie boxes nationwide. Maya (our 9 year old daughter) is part of Troop 3002 on Roosevelt Island.

Girl Scouts USA Chief Executive Officer Syliva Acevedo congratulated Maya

and wrote

Dear Maya,

Congratulations on being chosen to represent your Girl Scout sisters and the entire Girl Scout Movement on the new Girl Scout Cookie packaging! Our famous cookie packages have always featured girls like you being true G.I.R.L.s (Go-Getters, Innovators,  Risk takers and Leaders) as you dive into outdoor adventures, take action in your community, explore your passions and make lifelong connections...

According to Girl Scouts USA:

... The Girl Scout Cookie Program® teaches girls about entrepreneurship as they have fun learning essential skills like money management, public speaking, and decision making, which set them up for a lifetime of success. Nine in ten Girl Scouts say the cookie program has built their entrepreneurship skills and their interest in pursuing entrepreneurship as a career path—so every cookie purchase is an investment in the world-changing business leaders of tomorrow. What’s more, each and every purchase stays local to power amazing experiences and leadership opportunities for girls in communities across the United States....

Ms. Rodney adds:

Maya & her younger sister, Madison, are taking cookie orders now for anyone interested!
