OUR MISSION:
We inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running.
THE PROGRAM:
Girls on the Run-Chicago (GOTRC) is a 501(c)3 a nonprofit after school program that provides a safe space for girls 3rd-8th grade to uncover their superpowers! Each year, we serve more than 4,000 girls, with a focus on working in under-resourced communities across Chicagoland. With the help of hundreds of highly trained volunteer coaches, girls experience our researched based curriculum that uses the power of play to turn big concepts into fun lessons that train a growth mindset so they can confidently thrive. At the end of the 10-week program, the girls come together as a team to participate in a 5K to celebrate all of their collective superpowers!
