Description
Founded in 1996, Girls on the Run International is a nonprofit that has served 2 million + girls across North America. Today's girls are exposed to longstanding gender stereotypes, societal obstacles and cultural challenges that can be detrimental to their emotional and physical health. Our programs are about so much more than running - they make an impact at a critical age when confidence and physical activity decline. Our Chapter, founded in 2001, Girls on the Run Magee-Womens Hospital of UPMC has been dedicated to making an impact on girls lives in our community.
