Thank you for your interest in inspiring girls throughout Maricopa and Pinal Counties.
OVERVIEW
Site Visit Volunteers help Girls on the Run staff support teams throughout the season by visiting Girls on the Run and Heart & Sole lessons across Maricopa and Pinal Counties. During each visit, volunteers participate in the lesson alongside coaches and participants, take photos, and experience the Girls on the Run program firsthand. Following each visit, volunteers complete a brief evaluation form to share celebrations, questions, or concerns with Girls on the Run staff so we can best support our teams throughout the season.
Volunteers are asked to complete a minimum of four site visits each season. This role is ideal for individuals who want to experience the program in action but are unable to commit to coaching. It is also a wonderful way to connect with a variety of teams and serve as a positive role model for girls.
