My Story…

As a proud coach of Girls on the Run, I can think of no better organization to raise money for and push me than this. 

GOTR spends 10 weeks teaching girls to embrace their own differences and to love their friends and classmates for theirs. We teach them how to celebrate what makes them unique. Instead of feeling divided based on how they look or where they come from, they learn that all these differences make them special, make them who they are. I want to live in a world that embraces everyone's differences. I want to live in a world where young girls are lifting each other up instead of turning into women who tear each other down. But not all girls can afford to participate in this incredible program. If each girl can have the opportunity to participate in this program, our country can take one tiny step closer to equality. If we can teach each girl that their differences make them better, we will be changing their lives and the lives of everyone they come in contact with. We need them now more than ever!
