With your gift, you are helping a girl unleash her limitless potential. You are giving her a place where where she feels accepted and understood.
In a world where self-satisfaction among girls is decreasing alongside an increasing sense of loneliness and hopelessness, Girls on the Run programming is a NEED to have, not a NICE to have.
Through Girls on the Run, Girls develop social, emotional, and physical competence, feel confident in who they are, create positive connections with peers and adults, develop strength of character, respond to others and oneself with care and compassion, and make a meaningful contribution to community.
99% of participants felt like they belonged at Girls on the Run Atlanta programming. More than 90% of participants say they are more confident and are learning valuable skills to help them cope with strong emotions. Parents and Coaches are echoing these sentiments.
Our goal has always been to create a welcoming space where all can have a meaningful and engaging experience and feel like they belong. When we say "all", we mean people of all races, ethnicities, income levels, sexual orientations, gender identities, religions, and abilities.
