	GSEP provides two program opportunities for troops and girls to earn funds that help to finance troop activities, the Nuts About Reading Program and The Cookie Program. Girls who participate in these two programs learn lifelong skills such as goal setting, money management, communication, marketing, teamwork, sales, leadership and self-esteem. Please note that troops wishing to do outside fundraisers must participate in the Cookie Program in order to qualify for approval of additional fundraising. During the course of the Cookie and Nuts About Reading Programs no outside fundraisers are permitted. 2010 Nuts About Reading Program: Design a Plan, Build Your Future!

"Nut Promises" This year your customers will have the ability to make nut promises, or place their orders online. After girls register and complete the program activity on the QSP/Nut web site, each Girl Scout can send emails to family and friends asking to them to make nut promises. At the conclusion of the program, each girl simply prints out a detailed order report, which contains the total of the nut promises that were made to them. These totals can then be included on their nut order card. It’s that simple! Consider using this new and innovative way to help you reach your goals. Questions?
