Girl Scout cookie sales support activities for girls in grades k-12 who participate in the various pathways of Girl Scouting. Without the revenue from cookie sales, troops would have to rely, even more than they do, on parents paying for activities. In today's economy, fewer and fewer parents can meet the monetary requirements of their children's extracurricular activities. By presenting "Coconut Dreams" and "Grasshoppers" as visually identical to the more expensive Girl Scout Cookies, Keebler is effectively taking money away from the program and decreasing opportunities for girls.
