“It was such a pleasure to welcome Julia Lin to my district office and celebrate her incredible accomplishment as Queens’ top Girl Scout Cookie seller,” Schulman said. “Her dedication, leadership and entrepreneurial spirit reflect the very best of what the Girl Scouts stand for.

“Selling Girl Scout cookies has helped me grow as a leader and learn how to advocate for myself and others in my community,” Lin said. “What started as something simple became an experience that shaped my confidence and sense of responsibility. I’m incredibly grateful for the support I’ve received from Girl Scouts of Greater New York and honored to be recognized by Council Member Schulman.”
