As the Executive Director of Girls on the Run Capital Region, I’ve had the privilege of seeing the incredible impact our programs have on young girls throughout our community. Our mission is to inspire girls to be joyful, healthy, and confident through a fun, experience-based curriculum that creatively integrates running. And this opportunity is for every girl, no matter her background or circumstances.
Through our program, girls learn valuable life skills, develop self-confidence, and build a strong foundation for a healthy lifestyle – all while having fun and being active. Each session reinforces lessons of resilience, teamwork, and self-worth, equipping these girls with the tools they need to navigate life’s challenges and achieve their dreams.
But we can't do it alone. We rely on the generous support of our community to ensure that no girl is turned away due to financial barriers. This year, your support will help provide scholarships, program materials, and the resources needed to make sure every girl has the chance to participate, regardless of her family's ability to pay.
As we approach the end of the year, I am asking for your support to continue this vital work. I have set a personal goal to raise $1,000 to help with our council's big end-of-year need. Your contribution will make a direct impact on the lives of girls in our region, allowing them to experience the transformative power of Girls on the Run.
Together, we can help every girl reach her full potential and inspire a generation of confident, empowered young women.
