"Each Girl Scout council is responsible for deciding what to do with unsold cookies. Some may be sent to other troops who are selling more than usual."
"Unsold Girl Scout cookies can also be donated at the discretion of the local council. GSUSA encourages them to work with local food pantries and other charitable organizations."
"Customers can also donate cookies to local charities or military personnel through the Girl Scouts' Gift of Caring or Cookie Share programs."
Girl Scouts sell around 200 million boxes of cookies annually, with sales typically occurring from January to March or April. Occasionally, unsold cookies remain due to various challenges. Each Girl Scout council decides the fate of these cookies, which may include redistribution to other troops, extended sales, or donations to local food pantries. Customers can also donate cookies through the Gift of Caring program, supporting local charities or military personnel. Leftover cookies can be frozen or used in recipes like icebox cakes.
