Dr. Gold was a Brownie as a child, but switched over to 4-H growing up in New Hampshire. It was in 4-H that she learned to sew, crochet and cook from the women in the town. This is the same spirit of learning and teaching that she found in Girl Scouts.  Girl Scout leaders are passionate and want to teach the next generation skills of leadership, love of nature, independence and sisterhood. Girl scouts is an outstanding organization that builds girls of courage, leadership and community service. Her daughter started in Santa Monica Girl Scouts in 3rd grade and Dr. Gold took over as her daughter’s Troop Leader in 2012. She became the Service Unit Manager for all 38 Santa Monica Troops and close to 400 Girl Scouts and leaders in May 2015. Dr. Gold will receive the Girl Scouts of Greater Los Angeles President’s Award for the Service Unit at the upcoming Annual Girl Scouts Volunteer Ceremony on April 13th for her work to make Santa Monica Girl Scouts exceptional.
