When girls feel supported, encouraged, and confident in who they are, their potential is limitless.

At Girls on the Run, every practice is an opportunity to build friendships, discover strengths, find joy in movement, and grow into the confident leaders of tomorrow.

Here’s to big smiles, strong connections, and limitless potential! 💜⭐

🎙️ Women supporting women—and girls!

This week on Joyful Journeys, our Director of Engagement, Ashleigh, is joined by women from the Heavy Construction Contractors Association (HCCA) to talk about finding connection and camaraderie while working in a male-dominated industry.

From snack drives and 5K volunteering to GOTR for Grown-Ups lessons, our partnership has created opportunities to give back, grow, and support one another.

💬 “Failure doesn’t mean the end, it means you are learning and growing.”

Tune in to your favorite podcast platform to hear how HCCA and GOTR NOVA are creating spaces where women and girls can build confidence, connection, and community. 💜

🎙️ What makes a great partnership? Shared values, meaningful impact, and a little friendly competition!

Julie Leonard joined Enterprise Knowledge as its first Human Resources hire at the height of COVID. This week, she joins GOTR NOVA Director of Development Catherine Kellar on Joyful Journeys to share how a connection between two organizations has grown into an impactful partnership.

Since 2022, Enterprise Knowledge has contributed nearly $10,000 to GOTR NOVA through sponsorships and creative fundraising efforts. Their annual step challenge alone has raised more than $7,000!

Julie shares how the missions of EK and GOTR NOVA align through a shared belief in embracing our differences and finding strength in our connectedness.

That connection comes to life through EK’s step challenge, where employees set personal step goals—mirroring the way Girls on the Run participants learn to set and work toward goals at practice and beyond.

Tune in to hear more about the partnership between Enterprise Knowledge and GOTR NOVA, the impact of their annual step challenge, and how organizations can find meaningful ways to give back to their communities.
