Story and Mission
At Girl Scouts of Southern Alabama ( GSSA ), we ’ re dedicated to giving back to our community . With every cookie purchase , not only are you helping a young entrepreneur achieve her goals , but you ’ re also helping fund countless community service projects that she will lead throughout the year . Cookies are just a step in propelling our girls and our community forward . Girl Scouts isn ’ t just something girls do , it ’ s who they are and how they choose to serve others .
These female leaders are paving the way for the new decade , and they could use your support ! To purchase cookies and help our girls achieve their goals , go to www . girlscoutssa . org .
Last year , more than 5,000 Girl Scouts across 30 counties in southern Alabama discovered their strengths , connected with others , and took action to make our world a better place . They explored interests from outdoor adventures to STEM to financial literacy , devoted thousands of hours of service to our community , and managed the business of selling hundreds of thousands of boxes of cookies . Help ensure that Girl Scouts continues to impact our community today while developing our leaders of tomorrow !

Story and Mission
The History Museum of Mobile is where Mobile ' s story begins . The Museum collects , preserves , safeguards , and interprets over 118,000 objects that weave together the rich , diverse , and often turbulent histories of Mobile and the surrounding area , from the prehistoric past to the present . We believe in the power of stories to shape and define the future . We believe history should be participatory , engaging our youngest and oldest visitors in thoughtful - and often playful - ways . And to acknowledge the diverse experiences of Mobilians , we believe the Museum must tell all the stories of Mobile .
Something for Everyone
The History Museum is honored to be curating Clotilda : The Exhibition , which will be installed at the Africatown Heritage House and will open in 2023 . The blockbuster exhibitions that began in 2021 will continue in the coming years , and a full calendar of programming reaches people of all interests and backgrounds . Visitors are invited to check out the children ' s discovery room , where our youngest visitors can get a handson experience with French Colonial Mobile ! This is a museum of history for all Mobilians !
