Girls on the Run SWFL is a nonprofit organization that inspires girls to be joyful, healthy, and confident through a research based curriculum that creatively integrates movement.

Through small team practices led by trained volunteer coaches, girls build confidence, strengthen friendships, learn how to manage emotions, practice communication, and discover the power of their own voice. Each season ends with a celebratory 5K, giving girls a chance to set a goal, work toward it, and experience the joy of crossing the finish line.

Girls on the Run SWFL serves girls across Southwest Florida and is committed to making the program accessible to all families through scholarships and financial assistance.

Rooted & Rising was created in partnership with Girls on the Run SWFL to extend this mission beyond the season by giving mothers and daughters a meaningful space to connect, reflect, and grow together.
