Gift of Caring Programs

Operation CookieOperation Cookie Drop is now Operation Cookie!

OCD OpC• As we commit to diversity, equity and inclusion,

we’ve made the important decision to change “Operation Cookie Drop” to “Operation Cookie”.

• We strive for the language we use to be sensitive and respectful and recognize that the use of the {former} acronym isn’t in keep with our values as an organization.

• Our council sponsored program where packages are donated to various branches of the military and USO.

• Girls collect donations for OpC but do not set aside physical packages of cookies

• GSWW purchases additional cookies at the end of the program to fulfill donations

Troop Gift of Caring• Troop sponsored service project where the

troop chooses a local non-profit agency to receive donated packages after the sale

• Donated packages are physically delivered to chosen non-profit by the troop at the end of the program

• TGOC packages may be picked up from SU cupboards at the end of the program, as troops sell through their inventory
