The Guyana Girl Guides Association (GGGA) is the national Guiding organization of Guyana. It serves 3,719 members (as of 2018).[1] Founded in 1922, the girls-only organization became a full member of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts in 1969.[1]

Guiding started in 1922 in Berbice,[2] and became a branch association of the Guide Association in the United Kingdom in 1924.[1] It is the country's oldest association dedicated to the social development and wellness of girls and young women.[3]

In 2019, first lady Sandra Granger was patron of the Guyana Girl Guides Association.[3]

Program

The association is divided in four sections according to age:[4]

  • Sunflowers - ages 3 to 7
  • Brownie Guide - ages 7 to 11
  • Girl Guide - ages 11 to 15
  • Ranger Guide - ages 15 to 19

Units are usually affiliated with a school, including Leeds Primary, Rose Hall Estate Primary, St. Aloysius Primary, Tagore Memorial, All Saints Primary, East Canje Secondary, Buxton, Ann's Grove, Plaisance, Tutorial, Pavilion, Sophia and West Demerara,[2] St Paul’s Plaisance, Bishops' High School.[3]

The local units are grouped in divisions, among them the division "East Coast of Demerara".[3]

GGGA is a member of the Caribbean Link for Guiding within the Western Hemisphere Region of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts.[5]

Activities

Their yearly event World Thinking Day on February 22 "is a day of international friendship, speaking out on issues that affect girls and young women, and fundraising for 10 million Girl Guides and Girl Scouts around the world."[2]
