Girl Scouts of Kansas Heartland

Thanks to Kansans and their generosity, 610 Girl Scouts of Girl Scouts Kansas Heartland sold more than 500 packages of cookies each.

The top cookie seller of 2015 was Abby Uncapher, a Brownie Girl Scout from Independence who sold 1,800 packages of Girl Scout Cookies.

Girl Scouts across 80 Kansas counties sold 1,462,645 packages of cookies between Jan. 31 and March 8.

Statewide, more than 16,100 packages of cookies were purchased through the council’s Cookie Share Program, which benefits military members and local charities. Girl Scouts of Kansas Heartland has distributed more than 94,500 packages of cookies through this program since its inception in 2010, with more than half going to military members and their families.

Through the Girl Scout Cookie Program, Girl Scouts learn five essential skills – goal-setting, decision-making, money management, people skills and business ethics – that last a lifetime. They’re also working to help people in need and taking steps to care for our planet, as many Girl Scouts invest their own cookie proceeds right back into communities across our great state.

All of the cookie sale proceeds stay in Kansas to support Girl Scouting and help girls reach their goals, whether it’s attending Girl Scout camp, completing a service project in their community, or even traveling the world.
