Jessica's Girls on the Run Fundraiser

I recently joined the Board of Girls on the Run of Greater Sacramento, the ONLY evidence-based program that helps Sacramento-area girls build their emotional, mental, and physical health.  

The program combines a professionally designed curriculum with a 5K training plan encouraging girls to develop self-respect and make healthy decisions. They also build life skills such as confidence, kindness, and decision-making.  

In 2023, more than 700 girls participated in our programming, and we're on track to serve even more this year. BUT WE NEED YOUR HELP. Approximately 50% of our participants receive scholarships, and I've made a goal of raising $2,775 to provide scholarships and new running shoes to 15 girls who otherwise wouldn't be able to participate. I'm also personally matching funds to help another 15 girls access this important programming.

Will you join me in helping Girls on the Run show girls they can be joyful, confident & healthy? Here's what your contribution supports: 

$50    Provide new running shoes for one scholarship recipient (about 50% of girls receive scholarships) 

$100    Provide new running shoes for two scholarship recipients (about 50% of girls receive scholarships) 

$185    Sponsor a scholarship and running shoes for one girl who could not otherwise participate (about 50% of girls receive scholarships) 

$250    Provide materials, resources, training and support for our volunteer coaches    

$500    Supply healthy snacks for 5 teams for an entire season   

$750    Provide new running shoes for a team of 15 girls 

By supporting Girls on the Run, you will make a tangible difference in the lives of girls in our community, providing them with essential life skills and the confidence they need to navigate life's challenges.

THANK YOU!
