Alexandra (Allie) McCormick is one of four recipeints of the GSNC 2024 Impact Award.
Lifetime member, Bronze, Silver, and Gold Award recipient, and Girl Scout of twelve years, Allie McCormick is honored to be receiving Girl Scouts of Nassau County’s Impact Award, as for as long as she can remember, Girl Scouts has played a significant role in her life.
As a member of both the ceremonial unit and a media girl for eight years, Allie learned vital skills that helped her get accepted to, and thrive as, a freshman at Washington College. Additionally, her time serving on the GSNC Board and on the Girl Leadership Committee gave her invaluable experiences, which impacted her view of the world. At the 2023 Girl Scout National Convention, Allie participated as a national delegate, and acted as the only girl member of the resource team for the DEI proposal (which was passed!), where she provided the girl perspective on DEI issues.
Aside from her involvement in Girl Scouts, Allie enjoys spending time with loved ones, being creative, and playing music. She is on track to complete her bachelor’s degree in both music and psychology and hopes to earn her master’s and doctorate in music therapy, so that she can open her own practice.
Allie is passionate about helping others, which is evident in her community service with various organizations, including the nonprofit Jericho Cares (which her Mom is the founder of!). As only an 18-year-old with her whole life ahead of her, Allie hopes to continue to make the world a better place.
