What is Team Girl Up?
Team Girl Up is a running program all about girls’ leadership development. We recruit runners for marathons who believe in fighting to achieve gender equality for every girl, everywhere. Our runners know that girls everywhere are powerful, and they are raising funds through their race to advance girls’ rights globally.
