| Hi everyone!
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page and I hope that you'll consider supporting my effort to contribute to Girls on the Run (GOTR). I'm participating in the Baltimore Marathon 5k on October 16th in my what's soon to be my new hometown! I'm racing in honor of all the girls out there who are in need of programs like GOTR.
GOTR is an experiential learning program designed for girls ages eight to thirteen. For the past fifteen years, GOTR has been offering education and empowerment to girls as a means of not only preventing risky behaviors, but also encouraging healthy development in all areas of life – academic, social, mental, spiritual, moral, and physical. It works by offering girls a running program combined with a curriculum focused on building self-esteem and great health habits. The girls in the program follow a ten- to twelve-week curriculum in which they get to know themselves and each other, focus on team-building and communication, and develop an understanding of their local and global community. They even have lessons on media literacy! At the end of the program, the girls complete a 5k race, an achievement that gives them an incredible sense of accomplishment and confidence.
I hope to help support the Cincinnati Council of GOTR because I believe whole-heartedly in their mission. They will never turn a girl away, and will always work out a payment that each family can afford. I appreciate any support you can offer!
Thanks!
