Other Ways to Give

Matching Gifts toggle arrow

More than 17,000 companies nationwide offer Employer Matching Gift Programs, doubling or even tripling the impact of gifts made to Girl Scouts by their employees. Does yours?

Your current or former employer may amplify your individual support! If you are still employed, your employer can benefit through unrestricted tax-deductible contributions. Retired workers can also contribute to their former company’s charitable efforts. Inquire with your company’s Human Resources office to find your employer’s relevant forms and set up your matching gift.

Gifts of Securities toggle arrow

Gifts of appreciated publicly traded securities that you have held for longer than 12 months allow you to claim a charitable deduction for the full market value of the securities on the date the gift is made while avoiding tax on the capital gain.

Please contact advancement@girlscoutsgwm.org or 888-474-9686 for securities gift instructions.

Charitable Gift Annuity toggle arrow

There's a way for you to support Girl Scouts and feel confident that you have dependable income in your retirement years. You can do this with a charitable gift annuity (CGA). A CGA involves a simple contract between you and GSGWM where you agree to make a gift to GSGWM and we, in return, agree to pay you (and someone else, if you choose) a fixed amount each year for the rest of your life.

This type of donation can provide you with regular payments and allow us to further our work for girls. You can also qualify for a variety of tax benefits, including a federal income tax charitable deduction if you itemize.

Contact the Advancement Department at advancement@girlscoutsgwm.org or 888-474-9686 for additional information on charitable gift annuities or to chat more about the personal benefits of creating an annuity with GSGWM.

Memorial or Tribute Giving toggle arrow

A gift in honor or in memory of a loved one is a meaningful tribute to the individual and to Girl Scouts. Whether celebrating an anniversary, a birthday, a special occasion, or a life well-lived, we gratefully accept the gifts made in honor and in memory of others and we promise to use them well.

NH License Plate Decals toggle arrow

New Hampshire residents can now show their love for Girl Scouts with our Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains license plate decal.

Here’s how:

Obtain a Decal License Plate from your town clerk. Decal plates cost an extra $15 annually. Like any other new license plates, new decal plates also incur a one-time new plate fee of $8.
Get a set of decals from Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains. Decals cost a one-time fee of $25, payable directly to the Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains with all proceeds going to support our work. (This $25 covers the life of the stickers; however, if you get new license plates or your stickers wear out over time, you’ll need to buy a new set.) You can get your stickers at the Bedford Mountain Top Shop (during their regular business hours) or online.
Important note: You must have a “decal” license plate for these stickers. Unfortunately, these stickers cannot be used with a “moose” or “state park” or other license plate type.
Stick your decals on your new license plates and be the envy of all your friends!

Facebook Fundraisers toggle arrow

Want to do some good while you’re checking your social media accounts? Create a fundraiser on Facebook and share it with your friends. Here are some tips to setting up your fundraiser for GSGWM.

Quick and easy steps to launch a Facebook fundraising campaign to support GSGWM.

Log into Facebook and click on “Home” at the top of the page. Look to the panel on the left below your name under “Explore” and scroll down to “Fundraisers.”
Click on “Fundraisers” and it will launch you to a page to create a fundraiser. Choose the “Raise money for a nonprofit” option by clicking on “Select Nonprofit.”
Type in Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains and click on us when you see us.
The next box is “Let’s start with the basics” where you set a fundraising goal. Pick a goal you think is achievable but still a bit of a challenge. Pick a date for your fundraiser to end. We recommend a least a week and no more than a month. Two weeks works pretty well.
Next you’ll be asked to select a picture for your fundraiser. You may have one you’d like to use but don’t worry if you don’t. There will be options for you to choose from the GSGWM photo gallery as well.
Next you will publish your fundraiser and invite friends and family to give. Facebook will encourage you to make the first gift. You don’t have to but even making a small starter gift is a really great way to give your fundraiser some good starting momentum!
Facebook distributes contributions quarterly. When GSGWM receives them, we send a thank you note to your donors and to YOU!
If you have questions or need ideas, contact customercare@girlscoutsgwm.org.
