Connect Locally
We are made up of a powerful network of local councils across the U.S. and Canada. Each council works tirelessly to inspire, empower and strengthen girls in their community. Here’s how you can volunteer.
Group Volunteer Opportunities
Our local councils have many organized ways for your group or organization to support girls near you.
- One-day volunteering opportunities
- Sponsoring a Girls on the Run team
Support at the 5K
Can’t commit to a full season of coaching? Local councils need your help at the 5K!
- Creating a Cheer Team
- Hosting a water stop
- Logistics support
Run with the Girls
Want to experience all the magic that comes with helping her cross the finish line? Adults are encouraged to join girls at the 5K:
- Run, walk, skip, or roll with her
- Support and encourage her
- Share in her sense of accomplishment
- Have fun!
Want to Lead a Team?
You do not need to be a runner; you simply need to have a desire to support and encourage the next generation. Coaches receive all the tools and support they need and find that they get as much out of coaching as they give.
