“Everywhere we look, society is telling girls that they aren’t good enough. At its core, Girls on the Run is about combatting those messages, giving young girls the tools they need to lead joyful, healthy, and confident lives.” Cyndi Roy Gonzalez Thank you to Coach Hannah for sharing her experience as a volunteer this spring and helping us relive the 5K magic!

Our Account Director Hannah volunteered as a coach with Girls on the Run Greater Boston this past spring. The program, which met twice a week for two months with 15 girls in grades three through five, teaches the girls lessons that combine the physical activity of running with essential life skills like building friendships, managing emotions, and expressing empathy. Hannah expected to learn a lot about how nonprofits function from an insider perspective– and she did– but what she wasn't prepared for was that volunteering with GOTR helped her to grow and learn right along with the girls.
