We’ve been completely blown away by the energy our girls have for giving back to this program and their community, helping us make sure no girl gets turned away from GOTR for an inability to pay through Unstoppable Us fundraising. Now, we want to take a moment to shout out all the girls who raised money for the Scholarship Fund and the sites that hosted them!

At Girls on the Run, there are so many ways for the whole Memphis community to get involved–but the fan favorite is definitely helping with the culmination of all our girls’ hard work at the end of season 5K!

SoleMates—a peer-to-peer fundraising program of Girls on the Run—refers to a community of passionate individuals who commit to train for and complete an athletic event of their choice while raising critically needed funds for Girls on the Run to serve more participants. Whether SoleMates choose to take on a triathalon, a yoga retreat, or a marathon, they all have one thing in common: passion for girl empowerment. This fall, GOTR Memphis has TWO SoleMates taking on this challenge. Check out why Savannah and Caitlin are raising money for GOTR in their own words and consider donating to their inspiring campaigns.

At Girls on the Run, we recognize that our programs wouldn’t be able to run so smoothly without the gracious support of our donors, sponsors, and volunteers. We have around 400 volunteers annually that help us with tasks ranging from event set ups to coaching practices to 5k fun! Because volunteers are so central to our mission, we wanted to highlight WHY volunteering is so important, how you can get involved in your community, and what easy volunteering looks like. 

We’re a little over a month away from the start of Girls on the Run Memphis’ fall season, and it’s already shaping up to be the best season yet. Between new coaches, new opportunities, and new community partners, the GOTR community is growing and impacting more and more girls each year. Take a look at our ~*17 PROGRAM SITES*~ for Fall 2025 and learn more about which one may be best for your future leader!

The GOTR curriculum encourages teams to take the extra step and utilize their newfound confidence and can-do attitude to give back to their communities. Community Impact Projects are a vital part of each season, as each team identifies areas of their community that are in need and brainstorms ways to potentially help them. This Spring, our ten Girls on the Run teams in Memphis had a blast choosing and executing their Community Impact Projects. From school yard clean-ups to bake sales, these girls certainly rose to the occasion and made a difference where it matters most. Read on to learn about just a few of the CIPs our #GOTRGirls completed this spring!
