National Girls & Women in Sports Fundraiserl

Welcome to our National Girls & Women in Sports Day Fundraising Event!

Today, we celebrate the power of sport to shape confident, resilient girls and women—and the communities that support them. At Wildwood Running, this day is especially meaningful as it reflects the heart of our mission: empowering girls through sport, education, and connection.

As a nonprofit organization, we rely on donations to sustain our current programs and to thoughtfully expand our reach. Over the past four years, we’ve worked hard to build a strong, inclusive community while creating meaningful opportunities for athletes, coaches, parents, and supporters to learn from leaders doing impactful work in girls’ running and sport.

To be transparent, financial support is essential for us to continue this work at its current level—and to grow into what we know is possible. Funds raised through this National Girls & Women in Sports Day fundraiser will directly support Wildwood Running in four key ways:

Providing scholarships for athletes and coaches to attend our clinics and camps
Keeping registration fees low and accessible for all
Covering travel and expenses to bring leading experts and coaches to our events
Expanding programming and events to more communities across the country

Last year, our fundraiser was an incredible success—we raised over $3,000 in one day. Because of that generosity, we were able to:

Grow our overnight camp from one session to two
Increase participation in the Wildwood Girls Mile from 200 to 300 runners
Launch Wildwood EDU, monthly educational sessions offered free to coaches, parents, and athletes

Your support today directly fuels these opportunities and ensures that more girls can experience the confidence, connection, and lifelong impact that sport provides.

Thank you for celebrating National Girls & Women in Sports Day with us and for supporting the work of Wildwood Running.
