As I visit clubs around our district, I'm often asked about how to participate in projects to empower women and girls, one of our focuses this year. Now More Than Ever - As the world has changed, the needs of girls and the pressures they face have intensified. Numerous reports have shown the decline in girls’ mental health and physical activity levels over the last decade. Girls on the Run helps to address these mental and physical health concerns. Now more than ever, girls need the skills to build their confidence, develop meaningful relationships, and discovery the joy of movement. This is where Girls on the Run comes in! Maybe you or your club would like to get involved as a organization/corporate sponsor or volunteer individually or as a group. If you have questions or need more information please contact Director of Development, Jen Riess at jen.riess@girlsontherun.org.
There are two videos you might enjoy:
The first is the most recent Girls on the Run awareness video Girls on the Run: 2023 Brand Video (youtube.com)
The second is from 2016 but I think it does a really great job of giving a detailed overview of the program How Do You Measure a Girl's Potential? (youtube.com)
