Q: Can I get the address and phone number of a Girl Guide/Girl Scout organization in another country?
A: World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts' policies do not encourage contacting other WAGGGS member organizations directly, instead asking that contact be undertaken only by international commissioners. Some organizations have very small staffs and would be overwhelmed by the number of inquiries. However, the WAGGGS Web site and the revised Trefoil Round the World do contain contact information for member organizations that have given their approval. To learn more about member countries, take our World Thinking Day Tour.

Q: How do I find a pen pal from another country?
A: GSUSA's official penpal program is suspended at this time. However, you can leave a message for other members on the WAGGGS Web site in the Community section's Visitor's Book. Please do not leave girls' addresses, phone numbers, or last names because this is a public, unmonitored site.
