| Girls on the Run is a non-profit program for girls in the 3rd through 8th grade. Our mission is to inspire girls to be Joyful, Healthy and Confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running. The 12 week after-school curriculum uses the experience of training for and running a 5K race to show girls that anything is possible. Girls on the Run inspires girls to stay true to themselves and live free from societal stereotypes.
SoleMates is the charity running “leg” of Girls on the Run. We are a team of female and male athletes who pursue individual goals, such as running a marathon, to raise money for our important programs. SoleMates provides a great opportunity to give girls an example of healthy living. By joining a team who supports GOTR®, you can play a vital role in ensuring the future success of GOTR programs and have an impact on the lives of thousands of young women who will benefit from these programs.
Just as SoleMates members are changed by their experience, GOTR uses running to transform the way girls see themselves and their opportunities. Our ultimate goal is to raise enough money to reach every girl. We envision a world where every girls knows and activates her limitless potential and is free to boldly pursue her dreams!
