Girls on the Run is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping girls stay out of the "girl box" using a 24-lesson curriculum
designed to promote good choices for a lifetime of self respect and healthy living. The lessons, designed specifically to
address "girl box" issues, uses warm-ups and workouts that encourage emotional, social, mental, spiritual and physical
well-being.

Our goal for each girl is to:

		Complete the 5k run/walk event
		Have an improved body image
		Have a stronger sense of identity
		Learn to stand up for herself
		Learn the advantages of peer group support
		Understand her place in the community
