Keeping Involved
Life Members
Life membership of GirlGuiding NZ is conferred by the National Forum for those who have significantly contributed to the development of Guiding over a number of years, and who continue to support and promote the values of the organisation. Life members are those we want to keep involved in the organisation for their counsel and advice. They are a select group of up to 20 at a time.
National Guiding Friends
Founded in the 1990s, the purpose of this group is for members who have served Guiding at this level to keep connections with old friends and to maintain an awareness of Girl Guiding NZ today, with opportunities to support national projects for those interested in doing so.
The Olave Baden-Powell Society
The Olave Baden-Powell Society is a global group of people who choose to support the development of girls and young women. Membership is sought by several different types of people. Some have been involved in Guiding, some have had little or no Guiding involvement, but choose this route for some of their philanthropy focused on the development of girls and young women.
Trefoil Guild
The Trefoil Guild is open to anyone over 19 years of age who is an enrolled member of GirlGuiding New Zealand or of any member country of the World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts and who wishes to remain in contact with GirlGuiding New Zealand and support it.
Young Women
We understand that young women aged between 17 - 35 years are going through one of the busiest times in their lives. That’s why this group provides the opportunity for young women to opt in and out of support or leadership roles as their time and commitments permit.
