Program Registration

What does it cost to participate? The actual out of pocket cost to the Girls on the Run program is approximately $160 per girl for the twice per week, ten-week program. This $160 covers the full cost of one child’s participation which includes:

• 20 lessons conducted by two certified Girls on the Run Coaches
• an official Girls on the Run T-shirt
• program running journals
• a water bottle
• a healthy snack at each practice
• participation in the New Balance Girls on the Run 5k beginning and ending on the campus of Savannah State University
• a 5k finisher's medallion

A family that can afford to pay $160 is asked to pay the full amount. Participants of Girls on the Run and their families who cannot afford to pay $160 choose a program fee ranging from $25 to $110. Girls participate equally in the program regardless of the fee their family selects. The following scale is provided for families to choose what they believe they can afford.

The financial sustainability of our program depends on the honesty and integrity of parents who choose their appropriate registration amount. It is essential that each family contribute as much toward the full cost of the registration fee as it can afford. Families that have the ability to and are interested in supporting the program beyond the $160 may choose to sponsor additional girls as well. Please contact Kathy McCarthy for more information.
