Support a life-changing program for girls and reach thousands of Vermont families

Established in 1999, Girls

on the Run® Vermont, is

a non-profit organization

with the mission to educate

and prepare girls for a

lifetime of self-respect and

healthy living.

Studies have shown that girls between the ages of eight and thirteen are still receptive to adult influence, even as they are discovering the power of peer pressure. In addition, it has been determined that those who learn healthy exercise habits early in life are more likely to value their physical well-being as adults. That’s why it is so important that GOTR share its lessons with 3rd-8th graders.
