Girls on the Run - Girls on the Run teaches life skills to the girls who attend (such as managing their emotions or standing up for themselves) and then help them practice these skills through games and physical activity. The girls run more as the season progresses, and at the end they run a 5K race with other girls across the region who participated in Girls on the Run. This is often an amazing moment where the girls see how far they have come and how much they learned over the season. GOTR has 2 seasons a year fall and spring. A separate sign up is required for each season which allows more girls to participate. This program is open to all girls in 3rd, 4th, and 5th.

The goal is to pay back their loans and make a profit.
