There are many opportunities for both women and men to help support the mission of GOTR! From one day help, to coaching, or serving on a committee, we have a volunteer role that fits your schedule and interest. Our volunteers are impacted as much as the girls they serve!

  • Board Members plan for the long-term success of Capital Area Girls on the Run by providing support, guidance, and oversight. They are ultimately responsible for ensuring that the organization’s mission is fulfilled. If you are interested, please complete our Board Member Application.
  • Committee Members work together to plan our spring 5K race, assist with fundraising, help with marketing, etc. We are in need of motivated individuals to serve on various committees. Find out more about being a committee member!
  • Coaches volunteer one or two days per week during our fall and/or spring season for 90 minutes after school. Running experience is not necessary. Passion required!
  • One Day Volunteers are contacted on an as-needed basis to provide administrative support, prepare coaches’ boxes, fill race bags, etc.
  • Race Staff support runners at the season ending 5K run/walk. Upcoming event: ​4th annual “Capital Area GOTR 5K” on Saturday, ​December 6th​ starting at 9:30AM on City Island, Harrisburg
  • Running Buddies complete the season ending 5K run/walk with one of our participants - her personal cheerleader! If you are matched up with a girl, a staff member will contact you with further instructions. Upcoming event: 3rd annual “Capital Area GOTR 5K” on Saturday, May 17th.
