Breathe Cadette Journey Award Set

In this Journey, you will:

1. Find out about the air we breathe by visiting a wind farm, talking to an environmental scientist, or doing experiments using wind.
2. Plan a Take Action project to fix an air problem in your community. You could plant an indoor garden, campaign against smoking, or push for clean-air initiatives in your community.
3. Earn 3 leadership awards: Aware, Alert, and Affirm.

Girl Scout Cadette Journey Award Set is iron-on with three embroidered diamond-shaped appliques with the words: "Aware," "Alert," and "Affirm". Imported.

Please note: If you're a Girl Scout volunteer, visit the Volunteer Toolkit for complete meeting plans and activity instructions.

Updates are on the horizon.

Journeys will officially be retired on October 1, 2026, and in their place, we are launching fresh Leadership Awards to celebrate all the ways girls lead—themselves, their teams, and their communities. With flexible options, real-world skill-building, and no pressure to lead a certain way, these awards help Girl Scouts grow confidence, explore their leadership style, and make an impact on their own terms. Each award is represented by a beautiful new pin that captures the spirit of an awardee’s leadership exploration path.

So, what does the transition mean for the Highest Awards? It means that Girl Scouts now have more ways than ever to get started on earning their Bronze, Silver, or Gold Award—it’s as easy as 1, 2, or 3:

1. Level up. Already earned Bronze Award or Silver Award? They count—each award now leads to the next Highest Award.
2. Lead your way. Complete one of the new Leadership Awards—and check the prerequisite box.
3. Keep it going. Only one Journey is needed to meet the prerequisite (it used to be two for the Gold Award!), and any completed Journey will still count, even after Journeys are retired.
