Girls on the Run and STRIDE are innovative health education and wellness programs, combining the power of running with life-changing self esteem and character-enhancing lessons. These lessons encourage healthy habits and active lifestyles in young boys and girls. Many in our community are unable to afford access to this life-changing program. That's where you come in! All proceeds from the EmergeOrtho 5K go towards helping provide scholarships for these participants. Over 40% of our Girls on the Run & STRIDE participants utilize financial assistance and we couldn't support these families without your help!
