Juliette “Daisy” Gordon Low grew up in the southern United
States after the U.S. Civil War and married an Englishman named Willie Low.
After her husband’s death, Daisy Low met Robert Powell, the founder of the Boy
Scouts and Girl Guides. Low came back to her hometown of Savannah, GA, and she
brought the Girl Guides, calling them the Girl Scouts of America, with her.
Soon, the Girl Scouts grew beyond Savannah, and when Low passed away in 1927,
the Girl Scouts was a national organization.
