Troop Leader Spotlight: Faith Harmon

Service Unit: Yavapai Sky

Troop 764 (Multilevel)

Years as a troop leader: 6

What inspired you to become a troop leader?

All of my best childhood memories are with the Girl Scouts. I wanted my daughter to experience the same adventures that I had. I became a leader to teach girls how to become the best versions of themselves, while becoming a blessing to their communities!

What kind of service projects have you done with your troop?

For Christmas, we collect donations for homeless veterans then stuff 150 large stockings with socks, gloves, deodorant, powder, ChapStick, and much more.

What would you like others to know about volunteer opportunities with the Girl Scouts?

There’s a place for you! Whatever you excel at or enjoy, I guarantee Girl Scouts can put you in the position to encourage and help girls thrive.

What are your troop’s cookie selling tips and tricks?

We decorate our table in red and pink hearts with cute toys and nesting dolls. This attracts lots of attention and entices kids to bring their parents over.

What is the most inspiring moment you have experienced as a troop leader?

The troop regularly vocalize their closing circle wishes as prayers for sick children in the hospital. It shows their hearts and the love they have for others!
