OUR GOAL:
We hope to raise $25,000 this year to support our continued growth and expansion in underserved communities. As you know, we never turn away a girl for inability to pay the program fee. While competitively priced among after school activities, not all families can afford the fee and we believe the girls in those families should have equal access to Girls on the Run's powerful curriculum. When you donate today, you will help a girl discover her true, limitless potential!!

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. Lessons help girls make positive decisions to avoid risky adolescent behaviors. At the end of each program the girls run a celebratory 5K to experience the exhilarating feeling of accomplishment. However, 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.
