Unlock Power & Potential -- Join Girls on the Run Greater Boston!

Girls on the Run offers after-school empowerment programs designed for 3rd- to 8th-grade girls. The 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 2010, Girls on the Run has served over 12,000 girls in Greater Boston at over 100 sites in Eastern Massachusetts.
