New Space, Same Mission | 2026 Office Relocation

Our team is moving to a new home!

We have exciting news to share!

Rest assured, this change happens entirely behind the scenes. While our new space is currently being renovated and not open to the public, our coaches, program sites, and participants you support will experience no disruption whatsoever. Our dedication to every volunteer, every team and every family remains completely unchanged.

This move is intentional and purpose-driven.

Our program has grown by 18% in participation over last year, and we are proud of every girl, coach, and community partner who made that possible. Our new space is a direct reflection of that growth and our commitment to keeping that momentum going.

By centralizing our office, we are better positioning ourselves to serve all 9 counties in our region. Accessibility matters deeply to us. We can show up more consistently for the communities that need us most, including those counties where our presence is still growing.

We're especially excited to share that our new home will be with other youth programs and nonprofits in the former Helen Keller Elementary School in Green Bay. A space that already carries the spirit of learning, growth, and community that defines Girls on the Run. And it opens the door to something we've long envisioned:

• On-site coach training. For the first time, we'll be able to host coach training directly in our own space, which is more convenient, more connected, and more reflective of the community-centered work you do every day.
• A future GOTR program site. We envision this location eventually hosting its own community team, bringing Girls on the Run programming directly into the neighborhood we will call home.
• Better storage for equipment and supplies. Our new space gives us the room to properly store and organize everything that goes into making our programs and celebratory 5Ks possible.
• Full ADA accessibility with zero-entry access. No stairs, no barriers. Our new space reflects our deep commitment to inclusion and ensures that everyone — volunteers, caregivers, coaches, and community members — can walk through our doors with ease.

Expanding Girls on the Run into every corner of our region is a priority and having an office that reflects that commitment is an important step in making it a reality. We want every county to feel our presence, whether through program support, coach resources, or simply knowing our team is within reach. We will continue to work closely with all sites to make sure that whenever you need something from our office — supplies, support, or a familiar face — it will be accessible to you.

Our new address:
Girls on the Run of Northeast Wisconsin
1806 Bond St., Suite 163
Green Bay, WI 54303

Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions. 

Joyfully, 

Tania, Peyton, and Alex

Give BIG Success for Our Program

Lucky to have support from people like YOU

Words cannot fully capture the gratitude we feel for every single person who shared, cheered, and gave during the 24 Hours of Give BIG Green Bay. You showed up for the girls in our community in the most powerful way, and we felt your love and support with every passing hour.

In just 24 hours, 144 incredibly generous donors helped us raise over $21,000. We are truly humbled and moved by that. And thanks to a generous collaborative match from several organizations, your giving will stretch even further, multiplying the impact of every dollar and every act of kindness.

This outpouring of generosity changes lives in the most real and tangible ways. It means more girls can participate through scholarships/financial assistance, that our dedicated volunteer coaches are equipped to lead and inspire, and that we can keep delivering the kind of programming that builds genuine strength, joy, and belonging. Because of you, more girls will step into their heart power, grow into their confidence, and cross finish lines they never imagined possible.

We are so deeply thankful for your belief in our mission and your investment in the girls we have the privilege of serving. This community is extraordinary, and everything we do is made possible because of you. From the bottom of our hearts — thank you. 💛
