Episode Update - Girl Scouts of Ohio’s Heartland (GSOH)

As heard on our podcast in September of 2022, we had the great honor of interviewing Tammy Wharton, President, and CEO of Girl Scouts of Ohio’s Heartland Council.

Congratulations to her for making the cover of the Summer 2024 Ohio State Alumni Magazine for her work implementing STEM – Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math in the council.

How important this is for education equality for girls!

The need for science education for young girls and young women
Why STEM is important; need to impact young girls by 4th grade to move them toward science studies.
Utilizing organizations that already serve this population to advance science education.

GSOH serves more than 40,000 Girl Scout members. Her initial connection with the Girl Scouts began in 2001, when she led the organization’s fund-raising and public relations efforts. In 2005, Wharton left to become the executive director of the Columbus Literacy Council for two and a half years. In 2007, she was asked to return to the Girl Scouts to help lead the organization through the successful merger of three councils. Wharton became CEO of the newly merged council, Girl Scouts of Ohio’s Heartland, in 2008.

We would love to hear from you.
