Mission Statement
We envision a world where every girl knows and activates her limitless potential and is free to boldly pursue her dreams.
About This Cause
Girls on the Run Puget Sound inspires girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experienced-based curriculum that creatively integrates running. The objective of Girls on the Run is to educate and empower girls at an early age in order to equip with the confidence to be a leader. We envision a world where every girl knows and activates her limitless potential and is free to boldly pursue her dreams. Girls on the Run of Puget Sound currently serves schools in King County by recruiting, training, and supporting volunteer coaches for a 8-week long after school program that runs each fall and spring for girls in 3rd-8th grade. Moreover, Running Buddies accompany and cheer on each girl participant in the Celebration 5K that represents 'graduation' from the program. Since we've we started over 20 years ago, GOTR Puget Sound has served over 20,000 girls throughout King County, with 60% of our participants receiving scholarships. We fundraise from individual donors to build up our scholarship fund. We want to always be able to offer scholarships to any families needing support.
