Girl Scout Ambassador Corryn has earned the Girl Scout Gold
Award, the highest honor and achievement a girl can earn in Girl Scouts.
For her Gold Award, “Uplifting Wolverines,” Corryn wanted
to uplift the student body at her high school through a mural that included
positive sayings and quotes. The idea came to her after a tragic event happened
at her school that affected her peers. She recognized that school can be a
stressful time for teenagers and wanted to find a way to help the entire
student body. By creating the mural, she was able to give back to the school
and the students in her community, something that will have a positive impact
on them for years to come.
“I feel this has impacted my school’s environment because
if people are having a bad day there is something they can look at that has the
potential to lift their spirits even if it’s just for a minute,” she explained.
Corryn hopes her project will be made sustainable with the
help of her school’s administrators as they work to share the message of positivity
Corryn created.
