Welcome to Girls on the Run of Kaufman County !
Girls on the Run is a life-changing, non-profit prevention program for girls in the 3rd through 8th grade. Our mission is to "educate and prepare girls for a lifetime of self-respect and healthy living."
Girls on the Run combines training for a 5K (3.1 miles) running event with healthy living education. Our programs instill self-esteem through health education, life skills development, mentoring relationships, and physical training - all of which are accomplished through an active collaboration with girls and their parents, schools, volunteers, staff, and the community.
Girls on the Run of Kaufman County is an Affiliate Council of Girls on the Run International , which has a network of 160 locations across the United States and Canada.
