    Girls On The Run - Eastern Iowa - GOTR girls at a final 5k! (photo by Girls On The Run)

    Girls On The Run - Eastern Iowa

    (2 reviews)

    What a fabulous organization!…read more I have had the pleasure of volunteering this fall season with this non-profit at my daughter's elementary school. The entire purpose of the organization is to enhance both girls' physical activity levels and mental health/confidence. Our team of seventeen girls meets twice a week, right after school. We learn about solving conflict, helping others or making intentional decisions. We also really try to build up each girl's confidence and connection with one another. Besides having lessons, we also do a daily workout as we try to keep our bodies healthy and prepare for a 5k run! Additionally, my daughter is participating in GOTR this fall for the first time. She has been really pushing herself to get better and it has been so amazing as a mom to see her build up her classmates and to connect with some she wouldn't typically. I would recommend any parent of a daughter to have their child participate at least one season! Overall I have found the cause to be worthwhile. The Eastern Iowa chapter is run by some tremendous ladies. As a volunteer I feel I have been set up for success with all the tools I need to do the job I signed up for. As a parent, I see this age group of girls really benefiting from a positive experience like this as they learn who they are as young ladies. Girls on the Run is SO MUCH FUN.

    I've been volunteering as a GOTR head coach at Lincoln Elementary for two years now and the program…read moreis without a doubt the most rewarding and well-organized non-profit I've ever volunteered for! The women behind GOTR of Eastern Iowa (Holly, Hailee, and Esther), do an excellent job organizing the program, which is saying a lot because they're choreographing every GOTR kid, coach, and running buddy in Iowa City and Cedar Rapids. The GOTR lessons... The lessons I teach at every practice are well-presented in the curriculum book I receive at the start of the season. Holly has been great about meeting with me to replenish the occasional bag of markers or stack of construction paper. The practice curriculum does a wonderful job of incorporating positive life skills into running and active games. Through these lessons the girls discuss the best ways to cope with stress, why feeling a full spectrum of emotions is healthy, how to be a good teammate, what it means to have gratitude, the importance of being a good friend, and tons of other valuable lessons. My favorite part is without a doubt, getting to see the transformation the girls make over the course of a season; knowing that I'm playing a small role in their ability to grow into fierce, confident women is incredibly rewarding. The final 5k!... As a distance runner who's competed in an endless number of races, I have a huge appreciation for how well the end-of-season 5ks are executed. These 5ks have easily 1,000+ runners including 8 year old kids up to 75 year old Running Buddies, and yet I have never been short a time chip or race number for one of my girls. Not to mention how well they turn this celebratory 5k into a true 8-12 year old party with face paint and temporary hair color, fun kid-safe dance music, nice finishing medals, post-race snacks, and a high-energy finish line. I sure wish I had GOTR when I was an insecure 8-12 year old who hadn't discovered running yet. It's truly an incredible program.

    What a fabulous local resource for all the amazing organizations serving our wonderful Johnson…read moreCounty community. This non-profit supports other non-profits with grants/funds. I recently attended their 2023 Community Celebration which awarded grants to local nonprofit organizations, had a message from a guest speaker and presented the Community Impact Award Recognition for community members doing incredible work in philanthropy. Boy, you really left that event with your bucket filled, proud to be a JoCo resident and grateful for the tremendous work CFJC does. In 2023 alone, over 550 grants totaling over $2.5Mil have be given to causes and groups making a real difference locally. CFJC has a handful of staff, a board and then a plethora of volunteers that make the magic happen. What I found particularly interesting is that they just launched a donor catalog! Typically, grants are awarded after their grant commmittee (all local volunteers) review each. Now there's a place where anyone can see the local needs (it's a growing list) as well as all the funds the CFJC distributes from and donate as little or as much as they'd like online. Very cool. (https://cfjc.fcsuite.com/erp/donate/list/grant) Overall, CFJC is a valued resource in the community. Check them out. Support them. And if you're a JoCo residing cause, reach out.
