About the Events

Women of Distinction Awards Luncheon

Girl Scouts of North East Ohio established the Women of Distinction Awards Luncheon to raise funds for Girl Scout scholarships and financial aid while honoring women who go above and beyond to make our communities better places to live, work, and raise families. The honorees are selected for their remarkable achievements as business, community, and civic leaders dedicated to supporting opportunities for women and girls.

Also honored at the Luncheon is an outstanding organization or company that has shown a strong commitment to advancing women in the workplace. Additionally, three Girl Scouts are awarded the Leaders of Tomorrow scholarship for exemplifying the core values and mission of Girl Scouts and for making significant differences in their communities.

Dessert First Gala

Every other year, over 400 dessert-lovers join us to celebrate Girl Scouts’ mission and sample decadent Girl Scout Cookie-inspired treats handcrafted by prominent northeast Ohio chefs. A panel of celebrity judges and guests themselves judge the desserts on presentation, creativity, and taste. A formal seated dinner and program follows, including chef awards and live and silent auctions.

Proceeds from the Dessert First Gala benefit over 37,000 Girl Scouts and adult volunteers throughout our council’s 18-county service area.
