DEMING – The Girl Scout Cookie Program has long taught girls how to run a business via cookie booths, door-to-door, and the Digital Cookie® platform online. When the pandemic hit in the middle of the 2020 season, girls were faced with the same challenges as other small businesses.
Girls in Deming quickly pivoted their sales methods, from setting up drive-through locations to facilitating orders that ship directly to customers’ doors, girls as young as five years old are continuing to embrace their entrepreneurial spirits, stay connected to their communities, and have fun by participating in the cookie program.
