Are you looking for a way to empower girls in your community?
Become a Girls on the Run or Heart & Sole Coach!
Volunteer coaches work directly with the 3rd - 5th or 6th - 8th grade girls in the Girls on the Run program by leading them through fun and active lessons that intentionally teach life skills such as confidence, empathy and conscious decision-making. Our season runs from early March - mid May, and coaches work with girls twice a week for 90 minutes during that 10-week season. Practices are right after school, times vary depending on school district. We have sites all over King County!
Girls build endurance through walking and running activities in order to complete a non-competitive 5k (3.1 Miles) at the end of the season!
Coaches do not have to be runners, just individuals who care about empowering young women in our communities! Gain internship credit, volunteer hours and unmatched teaching, coaching and mentoring experience, join us today! We are looking for approximately 750 coaches to serve 3,300 girls this coming Spring - your team of girls is waiting for you!!
