Girls are changing the world!
Girl Guides of Canada’s Change Maker Award celebrates the courageous and inspiring actions of girls from all branches and the compassionate young leaders they’re becoming.
No matter how big or small the change – whether our members are making a difference in their community or around the globe – our Change Maker Award is here to cheer girls on as they change the world.
If you have any questions, please reach out to changemakeraward@girlguides.ca.
Nominations
Nominations are closed for the 2026 Change Maker Award. Thank you to all the girls who submitted nominations this year!
If you’re looking to get a head start on next year’s Change Maker Award, you can find the Change Maker Award Instant Meeting for all branches on the program platform. This instant meeting will help you discover the kind of change maker you are, reflect on the change you’ve created, and submit your nomination.
