Girl Scouts in the Community Throughout 2014, Girl Scouts across Kentuckiana stood up and took action on issues important to them. Girl Scouts made a difference locally, nationally, and even internationally. Girl Scouts of Kentuckiana is home to engaging and innovative girls such as Alexandria Myers and Julia Bache. Kentuckiana’s Young Woman of Distinction, Alexandria Myers, successfully created a non-profit named Project H.O.P.E., which selects a young woman from a poor

and often war-torn country to travel and experience life in the United States. Alexandria’s project aims to help girls learn that opportunities are available, and encourages them to think beyond the borders of their home country and believe that girls can achieve anything. Kentuckiana Girl Scout Julia Bache was selected as one of ten National Young Women of Distinction by GSUSA. Julia’s project, entitled “Stories from a Rosenwald School,” successfully nominated a Shelbyville, KY former Rosenwald School to earn a place on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. Julia became the youngest person in Kentucky to do so, and was honored for her work in Washington, D.C.

Kentuckiana Girl Scouts worked throughout the year completing many projects to raise money, awareness and resources for organizations throughout Kentuckiana. Girl Scout troops used cookie revenue to fund local animal shelters by providing pet food, purchasing toys and showing love to animals in need. They introduced cookie buyers to the “calorie-free cookie,” to show support for U.S. Military troops through “Operation: Cookie,” a partnership with Republic Bank that sends Girl Scout cookies to those serving our country. Girls also provided feet on the ground
for “Shop and Share,” a program led by First Lady of Kentucky Jane Beshear. Girl Scout troops collected non-perishable items at loacal grocery stores to donate to domestic violence shelters across Kentuckiana. Girls continued their work to make positive impacts on the planet by collaborating with the Department of Forestry’s Reforestation project and committing to plant one million trees by 2020. These are just a few examples of how girls made an impact on their community and the world around them in 2014.
Girl Scout Programming Works Jamie Caroline Boyd Troop 7422, Hopkinsville, KY “I’ve been a Girl Scout since kindergarten, and being a Girl Scout is a family tradition. My mother, grandmother and great-grandmother were all Girl Scouts. My mom and grandma are both lifetime members. Selling cookies is not always about being on top, it lets me set goals and help others along the way.”

In 2014 girls sold 1,884,884 boxes of cookies
Programming in Girl Scouts opened doors to introduce girls to STEM fields through partnerships with The Kentucky Science Center, NASA and The University of Louisville. Girls spent time doing hands-on robotics, science experiments and making gizmos and gadgets from everyday household items. In October, Girl Scouts hosted the first-ever Leadership Institute, giving older girls the opportunity to ask questions, set goals and explore opportunities for self-development. The Leadership Institute provided girls the chance to hear from and speak with local women business leaders and innovators about their hopes and goals for the future.

2014 Gold Award Recipients
More than 300 girls participated in the first Bridging Ceremony at the Big 4 Bridge in Louisville.
Nationally, only 3% of the girls eligible to earn a Gold Award actually receive one. In 2014, we honored 18 of our own girls who have earned their Gold Award in the past year and now join this elite group. Nicole Athanasakes, Cluster 3 Nicole organized a Local Missions Club to educate fellow students on the needs within their community. She had 45 student members and organized eight service events to benefit a variety of organizations in the community.
Sneha Chhachhi, Cluster 2 Sneha sought donations of computers, and taught basic computer skills to senior citizens living in assisted living facilities. Her work meant they could better communicate with their family and friends through Facebook, Pinterest and email.
Julia Bache, Cluster 3 Julia’s concern for preserving history led her to successfully nominate a local Rosenwald School to the National Register of Historic Places. Rosenwald Schools were rural schools built between 19121932 for African American students in the segregated South. She created a traveling museum exhibit, received national recognition for her efforts, and spoke at numerous events about her passion for the Rosenwald Schools. In addition, she led a session at the National Trust for Historic Preservation national conference.
Victoria Das, Cluster 3 Victoria increased public awareness of colon cancer by creating a pledge card for local fair attendees to obtain additional information on this disease. She attended multiple large local events to spread knowledge, made a YouTube video, and interviewed cancer survivors.
Megan Brangers, Cluster 3 Megan impacted her church and the community by creating an outdoor rosary garden for public use. In addition, she taught younger children how to pray the rosary. Her stepping stone rosary garden will be used for years to come by the Holy Spirit Parish. 8
Makena Devlin, Cluster 3 Makena increased public awareness of hunger in Louisville and the work of “Dare to Care” by creating an outdoor portable mural for their use as well as digital artwork for their print publications. Ashton Gentry, Cluster 2 Ashton created a new dog run at the Hildreth Adoption Center. The new dog run will provide a safe activity environment for the animals, as well as a pleasant location for potential owners to interact with adoptable animals, and support the work of volunteers
Katie Gries, Cluster 3 Katie created a music room, along with classes and a guest musician program, for the residents of St. Mary’s Center. With over 45 participants, her musical therapy program is enjoying widespread use. Lauren Mazeika, Cluster 3 Lauren created an herb garden at the YMCA of Berrytown for the chef’s use. In addition, she taught children about growing herbs and how to use herbs to make healthier meals. Kyleigh Mazer, Cluster 4 Kyleigh raised awareness for ALS by creating flyers and participating in several presentations. In addition, she held an ALS awareness walk. Ellie McDearman, Cluster 4 Ellie’s project provided a fun environment for increasing awareness of Muscular Dystrophy by combining her annual M.D. Pumpkin Derby with an Awareness Village. Participants learned about M.D. as well as products available to assist M.D. sufferers.
“
Being a Girl Scout has taught me to become fearless.” - Alexandria Myers
Lauren Moore, Cluster 4 Lauren’s concern for the lack of young people at her church led her to create an outdoor youth center, complete with sports areas and a campfire area, to encourage current and potential members to spend more time at church. Anna Mujica, Cluster 3 Anna renovated a library for use at the California Area Family Development Center. Her project provides child-friendly computer menus and software programs for children to promote early reading development. Alexandria Myers, Cluster 4 Alexandria was so moved by the educational needs of young orphaned women in Kenya that she started a cultural student exchange program between her school and Covenant Peace Christian School in Kenya. The program rewards successful students and shows young Kenyan women the opportunities available to women in America. Michaela Reed, Cluster 3 Michaela made and installed bat and bird houses at the Louisville Zoo and at her church to control mosquito populations, and hopefully minimize the use of DEET. With flyers and participation at local events, she educated others about the dangers of DEET and alternative methods for mosquito control.
Shelby Rich, Cluster 3 Shelby created a butterfly garden next to a school, library and senior center. She also created lessons about butterflies to be used by the teachers and library patrons. In addition, she promoted use of the garden through the distribution of pamphlets at local establishments. Sarah Stephens, Cluster 3 Sarah created a memorial rose garden at the Louisville Zoo and conducted classes for zoo patrons on rose care. The new garden will hopefully attract more visitors to this part of the zoo in the future. Daysi Zapata, Cluster 4 Daysi created a playground at her school for older elementary students to allow for increased healthy and constructive play. Children at Cornerstone Christian Academy will now be able to stay active at recess or during after-school hours.
Girl Scouts of Kentuckiana was home to 1 of 10 GSUSA National Young Women of Distinction.

Alexandria Myers Troop 375, Shelbyville, KY “Being a Girl Scout has taught me to become fearless. I’ve learned that hard work and determination are necessary for fundraising in order to bring a project to life. I earned my Gold Award project by starting a student exchange program between my high school and a school in Kenya, which catered to poor and orphaned girls, encouraging them to stay in school and work hard to achieve a brighter future. I learned that having a project succeed requires reaching out to people for assistance. To make my project a reality, I contacted elected officials for assistance in the visa process. Soon after the first student arrived, I was going on speaking tours and advocating women’s equality and education in third world countries, to audiences ranging in size from 20 to 600 people”.
25,937 program days took place at Girl Scouts of Kentuckiana camps.

Julia Bache Troop 2053, Louisville, KY “A Girl Scout since first grade, I realized early in life that I could make a difference. Through service projects, I have supported our military, needy children, and the homeless. From learning people skills during cookie sales to being empowered by Girl Scout adult volunteers, I have grown into a confident young woman. Mentoring younger Girl Scouts allows me to further develop my leadership skills. When I learned about the historically significant yet forgotten Rosenwald Schools, I decided to take action in historic preservation for my Gold Award Project. Girl Scouts has given me the confidence to become a youth leader in preservation and to project my voice to a national audience.”
11,996 people visited Girl Scout camps in 2014.
