If you know me well, you know how deeply I believe in the power of sports for all kids, especially girls. As a lifelong athlete, sports have given me a sense of purpose, confidence in my own strength, and a fantastic network of friends and social skills. So when I was invited to join Girls on the Run as a board member, the decision was an easy one.
As a proud board member, I’ve seen firsthand the incredible impact this program has on the lives of young girls in our community. Girls on the Run empowers girls to be joyful, healthy, and confident through a fun, experience-based curriculum that integrates running. This program is more than just an after-school activity; it builds resilience, fosters self-confidence, and teaches life skills that will benefit these girls for years to come. Through each season, girls learn the importance of teamwork, how to set and achieve goals, and how to navigate challenges—all while having fun and being active.
Our board is committed to ensuring that Girls on the Run remains accessible to every girl in our region, regardless of her family’s financial situation. Your contribution will help provide scholarships, program materials, and the resources needed to bring this life-changing program to girls who need it most.
As the year comes to a close, I invite you to join me in supporting this vital work. Together, we can help ensure that every girl has the chance to experience the transformative power of Girls on the Run.
Thank you in advance for your support! I’m here to answer any questions you may have.
