At Girls on the Run, we inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum, which creatively integrates running. We envision a world where every girl knows and activates her limitless potential and is free to boldly pursue her dreams. 

And we believe that connection changes everything. At Girls on the Run of Southeastern CT, girls experience a community that lifts them up. They build friendships, create connections with inspiring coaches, support one another, and learn the power of teamwork. 

During 2025, Girls on the Run of Southeastern Connecticut served nearly 400 girls at 24 sites throughout New London, Middlesex and Windham counties. 

The GOTR magic is brought to life by our 100 volunteer coaches and nearly 500 additional volunteers that help us achieve our mission. Each year, we get more and more requests to bring our GOTR programs - Girls on the Run (grades 3-5), Heart & Sole (grades 6-8), and Camp GOTR - to more girls, more sites/schools, and more communities. Your support helps us to make this happen! 

The funds raised through your efforts help girls in Southeastern Connecticut to find lasting friendships and build confidence through connection. We are so incredibly grateful for your support and generosity!
