MY26 Annual Troop Finance Report

MY26 Annual Troop Finance Report
Troops are required to submit the Annual Finance Report (“ATFR”) by June 30th directly to council via this completed Jotform. The ATFR is an annual report that includes financial transactions which took place from May 1st, 2025 through April 30th, 2026. Troops established during the membership year should report their finances starting in the month they organized, through April 30th 2026. These reports will be reviewed by the council to ensure policies are being appropriately followed and funds are being utilized to benefit girls. Each troop needs to submit their own ATFR- please do not submit multiple troop finances on one form.

Troop financial records should be shared with and made available to Girl Scout members and guardians throughout the year to ensure there is transparency in the troop’s financial activities and to help members develop their financial literacy skills.

The reporting period is from May 1st 2025 through April 30th 2026. Bank statements should be attached to this form. This year, we are requiring bank statements from June 2025, October 2025, February 2026, and April 2026.

If your troop is disbanding, please submit a Finance Report, as well as complete the Disbanded Troop Process Form found on our website.

Failure to submit a finance report could result in a troop being suspended and ultimately, disbanded.

Please email customercare@gsgateway.org for assistance.
