Girls on the Run - DC offers a life-changing, positive youth empowerment program for girls in 3rd-8th grade. Our mission is to inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running. Volunteers are at the heart of our organization and are who allow us to serve approximately 2,200 girls a year at roughly a 70% scholarship rate. We believe all girls should have access to our transformative and empowering program regardless of their financial situation.
Help us serve more girls by volunteering at the GW Parkway Classic 10-Miler on Sunday, April 22nd, as part of the Bag Drop Station! The Girls on the Run-DC SoleMate adult charity athletes are running this race to help more girls participate in our program. Your support helps the runners and positively impacts how our SoleMates fundraise on behalf of our girls.
GW Parkway Classic Bag Drop Volunteers for Girls on the Run-DC will meet at Oronoco Bay Park, in Alexandria, VA, at 7:30AM to help store runners' belongings while they gear up to run! The volunteer opportunity will finish at Oronoco Bay Park at 11:00am.
