Girl Scout Promise

On my honor, I will try:
  To serve God and my country,
  To help people at all times,
  And to live by the Girl Scout Law.

The Law

I will do my best to be
  honest and fair,
  friendly and helpful,
  considerate and caring,
  courageous and strong, and
  responsible for what I say and do,
and to
  respect myself and others,
  respect authority,
  use resources wisely,
  make the world a better place,
  and be a sister to every Girl Scout.

The Girl Scout Program is built on the foundation of this ethical code.
