In Woman Up: Social Justice by the Numbers, Girl Scout Cadettes,
Seniors, and Ambassadors will gain valuable financial literacy while
exploring the connection between math and social justice. Through
engaging, hands-on activities aboard the Mobile Classroom-in

budgeting skills, examine financial trends, and apply mathematical
concepts to real-world data on gender equity.
This
program aligns with the My Money Habits (Cadette), My Financial Power
(Senior), and My Financial Planner (Ambassador) badges, equipping
girls with essential tools for financial independence and economic
advocacy. Badges available for purchase with registration.
