As many of you may know, this year I've had the privilege of joining the Girls on the Run Philadelphia Board. GOTR's mission and vision is near and dear to me as we support girls in Philly building confidence, joy, and engagement through running. This end of year, please join me and my fellow board members in raising funds to support this amazing program that has reached 6,800 girls over the past 12 years.
Now through December 31st our dedicated board of directors has pledged a board match of $25,000. This means contributions to my fundraiser will be DOUBLED until we reach $25,000. I hope you will join me in unleashing the limitless potential of girls today!
About GOTR: Girls on the Run is a transformational physical activity based positive youth development program for girls in 3rd-8th grade. We teach life skills through dynamic lessons and running games. The program culminates with the girls being physically and emotionally prepared to complete a celebratory 5K running event. The goal of the program is to unleash confidence through accomplishment while establishing a lifetime appreciation of health and fitness. Each season over 75% of our participants are able to experience the program through scholarship support. Over 55% of our participants come from families with an annual income of less than $29,000.
