    GIRLS ON THE RUN MEMPHIS

    Mission

    Girls on the Run creates and offers after-school empowerment programs designed for 3rd- to 8th-grade girls. The national nonprofit helps participants recognize their inner strength, increase their level of physical activity, imagine their possibilities, and confidently stand up for themselves and others. How? Through the innovative integration of fun physical activities, life-skills lessons, and impactful community projects. The research-based curriculum led by trained volunteer coaches explores core topics relevant to 8- to 13-year-old girls, including understanding emotions, fostering friendships, expressing empathy, and standing up for ourselves. Our trained coaches and research-based curriculum create a sense of belonging for all participants and meet the vital needs of girls today. The program includes a Community Impact Project and culminates with a celebratory 5K. Since its inception in 2018, Girls on the Run Memphis has served more than 1500 girls and trained 400 coach mentors. Over 70% of our girls receive scholarships to participate at public, private, and charter schools, or their local parks and community centers across Shelby County.
