Where does the cookie money go?
Packages of Girl Scout Cookies cost $6 each. After the wholesale cost of cookies, all proceeds stay local. Girl Scout Cookie purchases benefit girls, troops, and allow our council to fund programs and support volunteers, right here in the Heart of Central California.
