Earlier this winter, Girls on the Run Hampton Roads was awarded a grant from The Rite Aid Foundation for $25,000 as part of Rite Aid’s ongoing commitment to improving the lives of children.
Girls on the Run is a physical activity-based positive youth development program that is designed to enhance girls’ social, emotional and physical skills and behaviors to successfully navigate life experiences.
Girls on the Run Hampton Roads is one of 22 Girls on the Run councils to receive The Rite Aid Foundation KidCents Regional Grant. The grant from The Rite Aid Foundation will provide more girls with the opportunity to participate in Girls on the Run.
