Calgary, AB – The much-awaited fundraising campaign of the Girl Guides of Canada has officially kicked off in Calgary with the arrival of over 17,000 cases of chocolate mint cookies. These delicious treats are sure to satisfy the sweet tooth of many while also supporting a great cause.
The arrival of the cookies was announced by the Girl Guides of Canada on Tuesday, marking the start of their annual cookie selling campaign. The organization aims to raise funds for various programs and activities that empower young girls and women across the country.
