Famous Women Who Were Girl Scouts

Author Cameron Moore

These famous ladies were once girl scouts!

By now, you’re probably like me, and have eaten your entire weight in girl scout cookies…

The Girl Scouts is an organization that empowers young women who go on to do and accomplish great things. They have over 3 million active members in the United States.

But did you know that THESE famous ladies were once girl scouts?

This beautiful smile belongs to Eliakunda Kaaya. I sat down with her and several of her peers for a conversation on girls' education last fall. Eliakunda comes from a family of nine children in Tanzania. She once said, "My own brothers would say… that it was a waste of time and waste of investment to…[send] me to school, because a woman is meant to be married.” But Eliakunda never believed that. She became the first person in her family to go to high school—and then the first to go to college. After she graduated she became a @ShesTheFirst Fellow and she launched a project called "Her Journey to School,” which builds on her own experience by reaching out to parents about the importance of sending their daughters to school. Eliakunda's story shows us the power of education—and the promise inside every single girl around the world. #InternationalWomensDay
