Ann Inspired

At Ann Taylor career development for young women is a cause that is close to our heart. So we were excited when associate favorite lifestyle site AHALife announced they were partnering with Girl Scouts of America to offer, for the first time ever online, Girl Scout Cookies. 

Donate $25 on AhaLIFE to the Girl Scouts Career Exploration Program (CEP) through AHAlife, and they will gift gift you something equally as sweet—a box of Girl Scouts cookies of your choice. Choose from favorites like Do-si-dos, Samoas, Tagalongs, Thin Mints, Trefoils and Lemon Chalet Cremes. Donations will go directly to the Girl Scout Council of Greater New York. Their goal is to see 1,277 AHAreaders support this cause—that’s one donation for every girl that is involved in the South Bronx program in New York, which is designed to show girls their full potential by exposing them to a myriad of career paths.

True to the Girl Scout mission of teaching leadership, values and self-confidence, the CEP is taught during the school day to sixth through eighth grade girls in five under-resourced middle schools in the South Bronx of New York and includes empowering activities such as field visits to different corporations—from law firms to arts/entertainment companies—and guest speaker visits. So do something good today and get something sweet.
