Girl Scouting is a worldwide movement that provides girls and young women, aged 4 to 21 years, a non-formal progressive educational program based on spiritual values and the ideal of service.

The Movement is open to persons of diverse creeds and races and cuts across social barriers.

Membership is voluntary. The Movement is non-political but any member as an active citizen, may take a stand/action on political and legislative matters. It is independent and non-governmental but it participates in nation-building through cooperation with the home, school, church, government units and other agencies.

While girls are the focus of the Movement, adult volunteers also enjoy many stimulating opportunities. These adults hold ultimate responsibility for the Movement.

Self-training through enriching experiences in Girl Scouting influences girls and young women into becoming responsible, decisive, useful, respected and acknowledged citizens in a changing world.

The GSP's program focuses on "well-being, family life, heritage and citizenship, world community, preparedness, economic self-sufficiency, arts and environment." Center of the program is the "eight-point challenge", a merit-badge program. The highest award is the "Chief Girl Scout Medal" which was introduced in 1976.
The Girl Scout emblem incorporates elements of the flag of the Philippines.
