Every year, on 22 February, Girl Guides and Girl Scouts celebrate World Thinking Day. This day was first established at the Fourth International Girl Guides and Girl Scouts Conference, held at the Edith Macy Convention Center because it was the combined birthday of both Lord Baden-Powell, founder of the boy Scouting Movement, and his wife lady Baden-Powell who was world Chief Guide.

This was the beginning of the creation of the Memorial Day Financial Account, which is helping to provide guidance to more girls and young women around the world.
