Want to Participate in the Girl Scout Cookie Program—But Need a Simpler Option?
Are you short on time, storage space, or extra support this season? Maybe your troop has opted out, or you’re the only Girl Scout in your troop who wants to participate. Whatever your situation, you still have a way to join the fun, we’ve got you covered!
Introducing the Cookie Lite Program
A simple, flexible way to join the fun—without the stress.
Cookie Lite Means:
- No boxes at home: Cookies ship directly to customers through Digital Cookie
- No training to complete
- 100% online: Share your link and you’re done
- Meaningful impact: Every digital sale stays local to support our mission
It’s the Girl Scout Cookie Program—made lighter, easier, and more accessible.
Why Participate
When you choose the Cookie Lite Program, you’re doing more than selling cookies. You’re building five essential skills and helping keep Girl Scouting accessible for girls and families across our council.
Cookie proceeds support everything Girl Scouts experience—from maintaining camps to providing financial assistance and delivering high-quality programs across our 19-county footprint. All funds raised through the cookie program stay local.
Your participation helps support:
- Camp and outdoor adventures
- STEM exploration
- Life skills and financial literacy
- Earning badges and Highest Awards
- Community service projects
- Being part of a supportive Girl Scout community
Easy Money | Troop Proceeds
Participating troops continue to earn $1 a package towards their troop proceeds, and all participating Girl Scouts will earn rewards proceeds based on their business prowess. Troop proceeds will arrive the week of March 23.
Call to Action: Participation Made Possible
To keep these programs accessible, we need more families and Girl Scouts to participate this year.
If your troop is short on time but still wants to take part, every Girl Scout in your troop can participate through the Cookie Lite Program. Even if your troop has opted out entirely, individual Girl Scouts are still welcome to participate on their own.
If you know other families or troops who could benefit from a low-lift option this cookie season, we encourage you to share the Girl Scout Cookie Lite Program Flyer with them.

One important step when setting up the storefront:
