Girls on the Run is an organization I've been familiar with, helping with, for 2 years now! This is an amazing non-profit that pairs together character building curriculum for girls and running.
The objective of Girls on the Run is to educate and empower girls at an early age in order to prevent the display of at-risk activities in the future. At risk activities include substance/alcohol use, eating disorders, early onset of sexual activity, sedentary lifestyle, depression, suicide attempts and confrontations with the juvenile justice system.
We were lucky enough to receive a grant so we could have Girls on the Run at our school this year! The girls trained for 10 weeks for their 5K race which was today! They did an AMAZING job! I couldn't be prouder!
Girls on the Run is an organization that I would reccommend you look up and support in any way you can!
