Girl Awards

All information on Girl Awards can be found on the National Girl Guides Awards page.

Girls and youth who have earned their Canada Cord or Gold Trailblazer Leadership award can receive a letter of recognition from the Prime Minister. This letter can be included in the advancement package, along with an award pin and certificate (details below).

Deadline is May 1. This is a hard deadline – the next request will be in 2025.

While youth do not need to complete the award requirements by this date, please list ALL expected recipients.

If you request a letter, but the youth does not complete the requirements by August 31, contact the bc-girlengagement@girlguides.ca to discuss options.

Please decide where letters are to be sent – to the unit guider, a district or area awards liaison, or directly to the recipient. (Note: if the letter arrives before the award certificate/pin, this has caused confusion for youths and their families.)

To request recognition letters, unit guiders should fill in the Award Recognition Letter Application form by May 1.
