Six years ago, Alexandria’s district came together to establish Troop
6000, the first Girl Scout troop founded by and for girls living in the
New York City Shelter System.
Each week, Girl Scouts meet in shelters across the city to take part in
activities that help them make new friends, earn badges, and learn to see
themselves as leaders. All fees, uniforms, trips, and program materials
are provided at no cost.
For Troop 6000 members, not only does Girl Scouting mean fun, it means
consistency and community – a network of supportive peers and adults who,
even if they’ve never met before, have similar experiences and are part of
the same club.

Proceeds from every box sold help the hundreds of Girl Scouts in Troop
6000 go to Girl Scout camp, earn badges, and do so many other fun Girl
Scout activities.
The New York City Shelter System provides temporary, emergency housing for
families. The average stay for a family in a city shelter can be up to 18
months. Remaining connected to the community and opportunities introduced
to them through Troop 6000 can help facilitate a successful transition for
girls and young people.
Every girl deserves a chance to reach her full potential: to have her eyes
opened to possibilities for college and careers, to make loving and
supportive friends, to learn from caring mentors, and to chart her own
course to achieve her goals. That’s what Troop 6000 is all about.
