Mission for Girls on the Run is to inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running.
Girls on the Run inspires individuals of all abilities to discover, build, and grow their self-confidence. Together, they experience a sense of belonging and connection as a team. Volunteer coaches facilitate lessons that blend physical activity with life skill development, including managing emotions, fostering friendships, and expressing empathy. At the end of the season, the team completes a Community Impact Project and a 5K together, which provides a tangible sense of accomplishment and sets a confident mindset into motion.
Camp GOTR provides a one-of-a-kind opportunity for girls of all abilities to develop self-confidence and learn life skills in a fun, collaborative environment. Girls build friendships through interactive games, enjoy physical activities, and express creativity through arts and crafts and storytelling. Led by caring and qualified Girls on the Run coaches, Camp GOTR combines the best of the Girls on the Run program with all the fun of camp.
The impact Girls on the Run makes is dependent on dedicated volunteers like you, who are committed and passionate about our mission and vision.
Coaches are the heart of our program! Each season, two or more volunteer coaches inspire and guide a team through our tried-and-true curriculum. If you're ready to directly make an impact, then this role is for you.
