Overview

Mission

To inspire girls to be joyful, healthy, and confident through youth development programs that integrate physical activity and social-emotional learning.

What it reported doing in 2025

Girls on the Run Santa Fe provides evidence-based after-school programs for girls in grades 3-8 that combine physical activity with social-emotional learning. During FY26, 289 girls participated across 19 sites at 9 schools. The program builds confidence, healthy habits, leadership skills, and positive relationships. Financial assistance and shoes were provided to participants in need, and each season concluded with a community 5K celebrating participants' achievements.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 82% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
