Washington Trust Bank recently committed to a five–year financial partnership with Girl Scouts Eastern Washington and Northern Idaho to further the mission of Launching Leadership: The Campaign for Their Future. They are joining with many other partners in the future of Girl Scouts.
The goals of the campaign include replacing the Girl Scouts Lodge at Camp Four Echoes, the enhancement of current and innovative new programs, and financial stewardship for the organization.
Washington Trust Bank's investment will support girls of low to moderate incomes through the Girl Scouts Opportunity Fund. The Opportunity Fund provides for financial assistance to girls in support of their Girl Scout program opportunities. Girl Scouts Eastern Washington and Northern Idaho provides more than $69,000 annually to participants through this fund.
Girl Scouts Eastern Washington and Northern Idaho serves nearly 8,000 girls and 2,600 adult volunteers in a region encompassing 20 counties in central and eastern Washington and 10 counties in northern Idaho.
