Girl Scout Council of VT

Dannah Lappin, Girl Scout Council of Vermont

Elizabeth “Lib” Higgins became a scout when she was a girl, and never left the Girl Scout organization! Lib volunteered her time, even though her three children were boys. She became a staff member, then when she retired, Lib returned to Girl Scouts again as a volunteer. Lib understood that when girls become members, they benefit from all that Girl Scouts has to offer. After 71 years in Girl Scouts, Lib left a legacy gift that provides membership scholarships for more girls to join the Girl Scouts.
