Named for the Girl Scouts’ founder, Juliette Gordon Low, JLLS raises funds and awareness to support Girl Scout programming throughout western Oklahoma. With the support of more than 500 community leaders and advocates each year, JLLS has raised more than $6.1 million for Girl Scouts since its beginning in 2004, providing leadership and life skills for thousands of Oklahoma girls.
We are beyond grateful for the overwhelming support at the 21st annual Juliette Low Leadership Society Luncheon! Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, we raised a record-breaking $480,000 to support Girl Scout programming and scholarships—empowering the next generation of Oklahoma’s leaders.
A special thank you to our amazing event chairs, Jill Trauschke and Christi Woodworth, and to everyone who attended, donated and championed our mission to build girls of courage, confidence and character. Your generosity makes a lasting impact!
