Charity slots, get your charity slots!

As always, local Girls on the Run chapters will be the primary charitable benefactors of each of this year's Ramblin' Rose Women-Only Triathon Tour events.
Girls on the Run is a non-profit life-changing character development program for girls ages 8-12 that uses running to teach values and a sense of self. This powerful curriculum builds self-esteem, self-acceptance, and encourages positive emotional, social, mental, spiritual, and physical development.
Beyond raising general awareness of Girls on the Run, Ramblin' Rose events are also instrumental in generating funds for local Girls on the Run chapters. Last year we tried something new. When the Charlotte and Triangle events sold out months in advance, we opened up an additional 50 charity slots for each event, with the proceeds from each $150 slot going directly to Girls on the Run. The response was overwhelming and the charity slots sold out in no time!
This year, we are counting on the generosity of participants by making the 50 charity slots per event available NOW and perhaps also later. We're confident that many of you will step up by purchasing a charity slot, which would be an awesome thing to do for your local GOTR program.
Join us as we continue to support Girls on the Run!
