At Girls on the Run we inspire ALL girls to build confidence and make intentional decisions, while fostering care and compassion for self and others. Trained coaches use physical activity and dynamic discussions to build social, emotional and physical skills in every girl! Girls on the Run of Portland Metro is a 501(c)(3) non-profit and a subsidiary council of Girls on the Run International. Since our start, we’ve partnered with more than 100 elementary schools and served over 5,500 girls in Portland through our afterschool running program. The only program of its kind, we focus on the important connection between mind and body. Our research-based lessons and accessible physical activity instill confidence and nurture care and compassion in every girl!
