Organization Information

Mission Statement

We inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running. Being a young girl in today’s society is tough! Girls on the Run helps third- through eighth-grade girls navigate difficult situations such as how to handle a bully, deal with difficult emotions, and how to stay healthy. Our one-of-a-kind program combines discussions of relevant topics with running to explore important values like gratitude and friendship and to inspire self-respect and healthy lifestyles. Our core curricula address many aspects of girls' development - their physical, emotional, mental and social well-being. Lessons provide girls with the tools to make positive decisions and to avoid risky behaviors. Girls on the Run is a 501(c)3 positive youth development organization.
