Free to Run's mission is to advance gender equity globally, through running. Through a combination of sports programs, leadership development, and community outreach, Free to Run helps young women to reclaim public space and change views about the roles they can (and should) play in a society.

Free to Run's fundraisers believe strongly in Free to Run's mission. Through their individual campaign pages, they are raising funds to support Free to Run's award-winning programs for young women and girls. Programs are designed to develop women into community leaders who can bring people together across cultural, ethnic, and religious lines.

Through your support and fundraising, Free to Run will work to provide sporting and leadership opportunities to our participants so they can be armed with the tools they need to succeed. Free to Run believes young women can and will be a force for positive change.
