GIRLS ON THE RUN OTTAWA
The OSEG Foundation is proud to announce that it is an Affiliate Council of Girls on the Run International and the first charitable foundation in Canada to bring the Girls on the Run program to its local community.
In alignment with the OSEG Foundation’s mission, Girls on the Run is committed to the development of important life skills through participation in sports, augmented by an evidence-based curriculum that helps girls manage emotions, resolve conflicts, and make good decisions. Girls on the Run is a physical activity, positive youth development-based program that creatively integrates running and serves girls between grades 3-8.
