For the 20th year, Girl Scouts of Greater Mississippi has assembled a group of distinguished women to be honored at the Women of Distinction event. These leaders, through their commitment to the community in which they live and work, serve as role models for Girl Scouts. This fundraiser supports many activities enjoyed by our 8,000 Girl Scouts and 1,800 adult volunteers across 45 counties in central and south Mississippi.
The Women of Distinction event will be held at The Country Club of Jackson, August 20th. A reception featuring a silent auction begins at 7:30am. Breakfast and program begins at 8:30am. Tickets are available starting at $100 per person, with a “Friend of Girl Scouts” sponsorship available for $500 for a pair. Corporate sponsorships begin at the Bronze level for $1500. Email bbible@gsgms.org for more information.
