The National Association of Hungarian Girl Guides was founded in 1921 and received as a member of the International Council, the forerunner of WAGGGS, in 1922.

During World War II the movement was involved in relief work in hospitals and helping refugees.

Guiding activities resumed after the war, but in 1948 the government banned all youth organizations, and the association was forced to cease functioning for the next 40 years.

Fogadom, hogy híven teljesítem kötelességeimet, amelyekkel Istennek, hazámnak és embertársaimnak tartozom.

Ismerem a cserkésztörvényt, és azt mindenkor megtartom.I promise that I will do the duties I owe to God, my motherland, and my fellow beings.
