OUR MISSION:
We inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running.
THE PROGRAM:
Girls on the Run® is a 501(c)3 positive youth development program which combines an interactive curriculum and running to inspire self-respect and healthy lifestyles in pre-teen girls. Our core curriculum addresses many aspects of girls’ development – their physical, emotional, mental and social well-being. At the end of each program the girls run a celebratory 5K to experience the exhilarating feeling of accomplishment. At Girls on the Run, the finish line is just the beginning, as our ultimate goal is to provide the girls with tools and resources that develop their ability to think critically - a skill that will serve them well for a lifetime.
OUR GOAL:
A gift to GOTR Memphis enables us to expand the program across the Mid-South and significantly change the lives of many more girls. With over 70% of our program participants receiving scholarships, your donation removes financial barriers to participating in our transformational program.
