Girl Scouts announce 2025 scholarship opportunities

Posted
Scholarship applications are now available for current registered members of Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida and high school seniors who are active members of the organization. Applications are now open through April 7.  
Through the generosity of dedicated donors and community supporters, Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida offers multiple scholarship opportunities designed to help Girl Scouts pursue higher education and achieve their future goals. Scholarships are awarded to Girl Scouts who have demonstrated leadership, commitment to community service and academic excellence. These scholarships provide financial assistance to recipients as they embark on their college or vocational journeys, rewarding their hard work and dedication to the Girl Scout mission.
The 2025 scholarships include:
The Barbara Ann Turner “Service from the Heart Scholarship” is the Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida’s first ever and longest-running scholarship opportunity. This annual scholarship of $1,500 is awarded to a high school-age Girl Scout who has given exceptional service in her community.
 
The annual ECHO Scholarship of $3,000 is for a Girl Scout who has earned the Bronze or Silver Award, the Gold Award and who has shown exemplary citizenship in school, Girl Scouting and the community.
 
The annual Florida Power and Light Company S.T.E.M Scholarship of $2,500 is for a Girl Scout who is currently pursuing or plans to pursue a career in a STEM field.
 
The annual $2,500 Gina Rose Montalto Memorial Scholarship is awarded to a Gold Award Girl Scout from the Southeast Florida Council.
Introduced in 2024, the Gold Award Advisors Scholarship of $1,500 is presented to a 12th grade Girl Scout who has earned her Gold Award and will be continuing education at a college or university.
The newest scholarship in 2025 is the Robin Trapani Memorial Scholarship, which awards $2,500 to a Girl Scout who intends to pursue a career in a vocational trade or skilled job that requires specialized training and education.
“Our Girl Scouts continually inspire us with their leadership, resilience and commitment to making a difference in their communities,” said Lisa Johnson, CEO of Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida. “These scholarships mean so much to these young ladies who truly exemplify the mission of the Girl Scouts. Thanks to our donors for supporting their educational and career aspirations through these scholarships which helps them take the next step toward achieving their dreams.”
