19th Amendment Patch Program

In the year 2020, the United States marks an

important milestone for women’s suffrage, the

100th anniversary of the ratification of the

19th Amendment. The core value of the

legislation states that “The right of citizens of

the United States to vote shall not be denied or

abridged by the United States or by any State

on account of sex.” To highlight this pivotal

moment in our nation’s history, GSSNE has

partnered with the Rhode Island Historical

Society and Secretary of State Nellie M. Gorbea

to create a patch program for Girl Scouts of all age levels. To earn your GSSNE XIX: Shall Not Be Denied patch, complete the required number of steps for your age level (found in the requirements here) and purchase the commemorative patch in the GSSNE Girl Scout shop in Warwick (while supplies last).

Girl Scouts of Southeastern New England is excited to introduce our partnership with Fidelity Investments! The Fidelity Investments “Let It Grow” Investment Patch Program helps girls to unleash their inner G.I.R.L. (Go-getter, Innovator, Risk-taker, Leader)TM and make the world a better place.

The Fidelity Investments “Let It Grow” Investment Patch Program introduces Girl Scouts to investing for their future. When girls start the program, they receive a Fidelity Investments “Let It Grow” patch. The program allows girls to grow from Daisy through Ambassador, earning a new patch bar with each age level. Girls may start earning patch bars at any age level.
