Collectively, thanks to our donors, a total of $410 was during the #FLX Gives fundraising campaign. That means that next season, more girls will be able to participate in Girls on the Run.
Through participation in Girls on the Run, each girl will gain competence, feel confidence in who she is, develop strength of character, learn to respond to herself and others with care, create positive connections with peers and adults, and make meaningful contributions to her community.
Now that is powerful and it is because of YOU. Thank you for making a difference in the lives of girls in our community.
