Volunteer and Make A Difference!

Our team of volunteers represents a dynamic group of women, including teachers, athletes, businesswomen, and mothers -all of whom possess a great enthusiasm for helping to prepare girls for a healthy and happy adolescence and adulthood. Volunteer opportunities are available for coaches, assistant coaches, running buddies and assistants at our 5K race.

  • COACH - GOTR Atlanta relies on volunteers to help us coach our programs. Coaching is a big commitment - 12 weeks in the spring and fall, one time per week for 1 ½ hours. Besides being role models of self-esteem and healthy living, coaches must be available after-school hours, and need to be trained in the GOTR lesson plans. Coaches work directly with the 3rd-5th grade or 6th - 8th grade girls - teaching them healthy habits and training them for the big 5K race!

  • SITE COORDINATOR - The site coordinator is the contact person who coordinates with GOTR Atlanta and is responsible for registration and collecting program fees. This person can be a site employee or a parent.

  • RUNNING BUDDY - Running buddies are those volunteers who cannot commit to coaching a full 12-week season, but who are interested in supporting coaches at a site of their choice, and especially running with and encouraging the girls on race day!
