The calm in the storm.
Staff Recovery, Girl Scouts and Volunteer Support Campaign
As we recognize our council's 15th anniversary this Girl Scout year, our focus is on recovery as Hurricane Helene unexpectedly devastated the Southeast and over half of our council was declared a Federal Disaster Area.
Lives are forever changed as communities are still assessing the destruction, rescuing loved ones and coming to terms with this unprecedented natural disaster.
Our Girl Scouts and their families need sisterhood, normalcy and consistency now more than ever. We must act now to provide some sense of calm in the storm.
To respond, Girl Scouts Carolinas Peaks to Piedmont has established the One P2P Fund to support our staff, Girl Scouts and volunteers. This campaign will provide staff relief, membership and troop support as well as uniform replacement for the GSCP2P council. Distribution decisions will be made by the Fund Development Committe, which includes Board members, staff and volunteers.
Girl Scouts are resilient, ready and strong – we will face this together as One P2P.
Staff Recovery:
We are so grateful that all GSCP2P staff were accounted for and safe after the storm although many have experienced damage or disruption, are left without power and cut off from travel. The One P2P Fund will allow our staff to meet their basic needs, repair damage and support their wellness during this critical window of safety and recovery.
Membership and Troop Support:
Our members, from girls to adult volunteers across western North Carolina, have experienced unimaginable loss and pain. Once basic needs are met and we can begin to move forward, our members need a safe space to reconnect with their community and work through the emotions and experiences they’ve endured. The One P2P Fund will underwrite membership fees and provide troop support. Girl Scouts is for every girl, and finances due to unforeseen circumstances should never hinder her success.
Uniform Replacement:
We realize that nothing can replace the memories and relationships that make our communities so special. What we can provide is an anchor for our members so they can experience a sense of normalcy and stability as they rebuild their lives. The One P2P Fund will replace uniforms for Girl Scouts who lost theirs during the storm.
At GSCP2P, we are Girl Scout strong. We believe in the power of sisterhood. We will persevere. Please give today to the One P2P Fund, and support our Girl Scout family as they recover, regroup and find a new way forward.
