Share a touch of luxury and help us send Girl Scout Cookies to our military Troops around the world or to those in need of a treat on the Delmarva Peninsula by collecting Cookie donations for Operation Taste of Home.

Through a partnership with the USO at Dover Air Force Base, Girl Scout Cookies will be sent to our men and women in the Armed Forces. As well, Chesapeake Bay Council will also deliver Cookies to organizations serving those in need on the Delmarva Peninsula. Each Service Unit will choose a location such as a food pantry or crisis center within their area.

At least 40% of the Cookies the SU collects will be donated to the designated location.

Girl Scout Troops participating in the 2010 Cookie Program may invite customers to participate in this project by purchasing a box (or boxes) of their favorite Girl Scout Cookies to be sent to those in need of a touch of luxury.
Customers may buy Cookies for $3.50 per box and designate their purchase as an Operation Taste of Home donation. This contribution is tax deductible. Customers will not receive the boxes of Cookies they purchase for this service project, as the USO will deliver the boxes of Cookies to service men and women overseas and the Council will deliver to targeted agencies on the peninsula. The customers’ donations will still benefit Girl Scouts, as girls and Troops will receive full credit toward incentives and Troop proceeds for all Cookies sold as donations.

Thank you for your support!

If you would like to donate to Operation Taste of Home, please send a check made payable to GSCB, with OTH on the memo line, and send to:
