Badge Price Increase

In response to many years of requests from our members, we are moving a portion of the production of our Girl Scout badges back to the United States. The “made in the USA” effort started in 2014 with Girl Scouts’ official insignia, and we are pleased to announce that all Girl Scout Daisy, Brownie, Junior, and Cadette badges will now be manufactured in the U.S. We worked hard to negotiate prices for these domestically produced badges and to mitigate cost as much as possible. Please be advised that while the cost of the badges will increase as a result of our reshoring efforts, they will do so by only $1 per badge, an increase that councils and members will see reflected in retail beginning July 1.
