World Association Pin

The World Association pin is worn by Girl Scouts and Girl Guides all over the world. All girls and leaders can wear this pin, symbolizing their membership in the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS).  If your girls do not have this pin, Thinking Day is a good time of year to talk about it and hand it out.
