Toyota’s partnership with the Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA), known as Toyota Scout, empowers girls to become self-reliant and financially literate. This initiative aligns with Toyota’s “Driving Possibilities” program and GSUSA’s community-focused programs to equip young women with essential life skills for future leadership roles. Since 2014, Toyota has invested in GSUSA’s innovative programs designed to overcome obstacles and broaden access to these vital opportunities.
Toyota Scout: Building Financial Literacy
The Toyota Scout program focuses on teaching age-appropriate financial management skills through practical, real-world applications. This collaborative effort between Toyota and GSUSA aims to cultivate financially savvy leaders who will positively contribute to their communities. The 2023 curriculum emphasizes community engagement and aligns with both organizations’ commitment to fostering positive change.
Toyota’s Commitment to Driving Possibilities
Toyota employees actively participate in the Toyota Scout initiative by volunteering at three Girl Scout councils: Girl Scouts of Arizona Cactus-Pine, Girl Scouts of Northeast Texas, and Girl Scouts of Southern Nevada. This hands-on involvement underscores Toyota’s dedication to empowering girls and fostering community development. “Driving Possibilities,” a long-term initiative of the Toyota USA Foundation, receives funding from Toyota Motor North America, Inc. and Toyota Financial Services, demonstrating a comprehensive commitment to this program.
