This August, Hannah, Mackenzie, and I are taking on the 15th Annual Citizens Pell Bridge Run as SoleMates for Girls on the Run Rhode Island. While crossing the bridge will be a fun challenge, the reason we're doing it is much bigger than crossing the bridge and the finish line.
As a Girls on the Run family, we've seen firsthand how this program helps girls build confidence, make lasting friendships, and discover that they are capable of more than they imagined. The best part is that the lessons don't end when practice is over. The impact helps others too, because the tools learned positively carry into school, home, and everyday life.
We're hoping to each raise $400 ($100 for each mile) for a total of $1,200. We're raising funds so more girls can have the opportunity to participate in Girls on the Run, regardless of their family's financial circumstances. Every donation helps Girls on the Run Rhode Island provide scholarships, proper running shoes, and supportive activewear so every participant can fully experience the program. Your generosity also helps us train and support the caring volunteer coaches who make each season possible.
Whether you donate, share our fundraiser, or simply encourage us along the way, you're helping more girls experience the confidence, connection, and joy that Girls on the Run makes possible.
Thank you for cheering us on and supporting a cause that means so much to our family!
