For Every 100 Girls...

Thanks to Marg Wheeler, who posted this reading to the Guiding Mailing List. I am looking for the origin to this reading - if you know where it comes from, please email me.

For every 100 girls who join Girl Guides...

Four will earn their Canada Cord.

Twelve will have their first contact with a church.

Five will earn their Religion in Life badge.

Only rarely will one be brought before juvenile court.

One will enter the clergy.

Eighteen will develop hobbies used during their adult life.

Eight will enter a vocation that was learned about through a badge or program.

Seventeen will become future Girl Guide volunteers.

One will use her Girl Guiding skills to save a life.

One will use her Girl Guiding skills to save her own life.

This is a great return on an investment in Girl Guides!
