The Leading Ladies Awards Reception is an event that celebrates women who are making a positive impact in their professional lives and, in their communities, especially when they are directing those efforts to support the advancement of girls and women. GSSA is the premier leadership organization for girls. Girl Scouts is a volunteer-based organization whose mission is to build girls of courage, confidence, and character who make the world a better place. We serve more than 5,000 girls and adult volunteers in 30 counties across southern Alabama.
