Shop With Purpose, Support Local Girl Scouts

Getting new staff uniforms, selling merchandise, or hosting a fundraiser? What if your next custom order could also help create more opportunities for local Girl Scouts?

At the CNY Women's Network, we're proud to support Girl Scouts of NYPENN Pathways (GSNYPENN) and its mission to build girls of courage, confidence, and character.

Serving nearly 10,000 youth members and adult volunteers across 24 counties in New York and two in northern Pennsylvania, GSNYPENN provides opportunities for girls to learn new skills, build confidence, and grow as leaders.

We've previously shared ways to support this mission by volunteering your time, sharing your expertise, and introducing girls to new experiences and career opportunities.

Now, we're excited to share another way to give back, one that might already be on your business or organization's to-do list: ordering custom merchandise through the GSNYPENN Press Shop.

Meet the GSNYPENN Press Shop

The GSNYPENN Press Shop creates custom apparel and merchandise for businesses, organizations, Girl Scout members, and the community. It's a way to get the products you need while supporting an organization that's creating opportunities for local girls.

Whether you're ordering staff uniforms, planning a fundraiser, or creating branded merchandise for an upcoming event, the Press Shop can help bring your ideas to life.

Their customizable products include:

  • T-shirts, crewnecks, hoodies, and hats

  • Bags, drinkware, and accessories

  • Stickers, decals, and notebooks

  • Custom merchandise for businesses, events, and fundraisers

With an on-staff designer, the team can help you create products that fit your needs. They accommodate small and large orders, serve customers locally and out of state, and offer personal delivery to local businesses.

And there's something that makes every order especially meaningful.

Products With a Purpose: Every Purchase Gives Back

The GSNYPENN Press Shop was created with one goal in mind: to raise funds for local Girl Scouts.

All revenue supports Girl Scouts of NYPENN Pathways programming, including leadership experiences, educational opportunities, financial assistance for memberships, and camp scholarships.

These programs give girls opportunities to explore their interests, develop real-world skills, and build confidence through hands-on experiences.

By choosing the Press Shop, you're getting quality custom products at competitive prices while helping make those opportunities possible for more girls.

Make Ordering Easy With a Custom Online Store

Selling merchandise, organizing a group apparel order, or hosting a fundraiser?

The Press Shop can create a custom online store where customers can browse products, select sizes, and place their orders directly.

Instead of managing individual orders yourself, you can leave the ordering and production process to their team.

It's a convenient option for businesses, organizations, and Girl Scout troops looking to simplify merchandise sales or group orders.

An Authorized Syracuse University Vendor

The GSNYPENN Press Shop is also an approved Collegiate Licensing Company (CLC) vendor and an authorized Syracuse University vendor.

Syracuse University departments, clubs, and groups can order custom merchandise for internal staff and departmental use. The Press Shop is also the only nonprofit on the university's internal vendor list.

Please note: Syracuse University merchandise produced through this arrangement is for internal use only and is not available for public sale.

Have a Custom Project in Mind? Get in Touch!

Whether you need a few custom items, a large merchandise order, or a dedicated online store, the GSNYPENN Press Shop team is ready to help.

Most orders require approximately two weeks, although faster turnaround may be possible depending on the project. Not sure if they can make what you're looking for? Just ask!

Email pressshop@gsnypenn.org to request a quote or discuss your ideas. Ask for Melissa, who can help you create exactly what you're looking for.

When you support Girl Scouts of NYPENN Pathways, you're helping local girls build confidence, explore new possibilities, and grow into the leaders they'll become.
