Her family says social media helped turn a traditional fundraiser into a viral movement.
“We’re building a movement, and it’s so cool. We’re moving girls into 2026,” her father, Luke Anorak-Neill, said. “I was like, ‘Oh, a million people have seen this. This is crazy.’”
Girl Scouts of Western Pennsylvania officials told WPXI that Pim’s achievement is unprecedented.
“For us, this has never happened,” Girl Scouts of Western Pennsylvania’s Mina Beach said. “So this is very exciting that we get to bring girls into Western Pennsylvania.”
After surpassing 75,000 boxes sold, Pim already has her sights set on a new goal: 100,000 boxes.
Her accomplishment has become a source of pride for both the organization and her family.
“Being able to help and empower her is incredible,” a family member said.
