1 National Gold Award Girl Scout Kennedy Jeffers of Greensboro was named a 2020 National Gold Award Girl Scout. This honor is given to 10 Girl Scouts across the United States every year. Jeffers’ project focused on creating a club at her high school to support students in earning service-learning hours. The club tackled problems such as healthcare access and education, food insecurity, menstrual equality and distracted driving. “Being a Gold Award Girl Scout really can change your life. I received more than $300,000 in scholarships and was accepted by many of my top-choice colleges, and I’m sure that having the Gold Award on my resume and application was a big part of it! I’m currently at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte as a pre-nursing major. The fact that Girl Scouts really emphasizes improving the world around you and that service has been a big part of my Girl Scout experience inspired me to go into nursing. I hope to become a nurse practitioner and a leader in the nursing field where I can serve my community and change lives.” —Kennedy Jeffers
