Mavia Haight: Girls on the Run is for Every Girl
Girls on the Run has fun, evidence-based programs that inspire all girls to build their confidence, kindness and decision making skills. Dynamic lessons instill valuable life skills including the important connection between physical and emotional health.
-
By the time they reach middle school, girls drop out of sports at a rate two times that of their male counterparts.
-
In a study, the least active Girls on the Run participants increased their physical activity by 40% and maintained that activity level beyond the program’s end.
-
This year Girls on the Run of Greater Oregon will serve 1,200 girls and nonbinary youth in our state.
