We are excited to be prepping for our Fall 2024 season of Girls on the Run and are looking for volunteer coaches!
Each Girls on the Run team (8-15 girls) requires at least two volunteer coaches. The more coaches we have, the more participants we can serve with our life-changing program.
You don’t have to be a runner to be a coach – coaches simply must be passionate about the mission of Girls on the Run, committed to working with a team twice a week for 8 weeks, and bring positive energy to each practice.
Will you help us inspire our girls to make positive choices, avoid negative behaviors and become leaders in our community?
Girls on the Run will provide the training, curriculum, supplies and support and for those that volunteering with us may be a barrier because of transportation, lost wages, or other financial reasons- we are able to offer a stipend of up to $250 on a limited basis. We also are able to offer athletic shoes if needed and athletic wear to help support our coaches.
