Girls  on  the  run

We give girls the confidence to dream big. We inspire the female leaders of tomorrow. For nearly a century, we have committed to improving the lives of young girls by not only building stronger girls, but stronger communities through them. 

Our Focus: Building Strong Girls.

​As advocates for women, our organization envisions a community where every girl and woman has the skills to succeed in life. Gamma Phi Beta's philanthropic statement is to provide experiences and resources that build spiritual, mental and social resiliency in girls in today's world. Out philanthropic partner is Girls on the Run. Girls on the run is a volunteer-led program that: weaves training for a 5K run, experience based lessons that improve self awareness, build a collection of positive experiences, and inspire life-changing confidence through accomplishments. Over the past year, the Beta Lambda Chapter has sponsored our own Girls on the Run training sight, and has provided our members as coaches to teach lessons and train for the 5K at the end of they semester. Together, we are building strong girls. 

Girls On the Run 5K

Coaches. running buddies. friends.

Two times a year, our girls get the privilege to participate in the Girls on the Run 5K. Our sisters participate as Coaches of teams, running buddies for girls, or excited faces cheering on friends at the finish line. This event is a time to see the accomplishments of the girls our sisters have trained throughout the semester and to show our love to Girls on the Run. Each 5K is filled with so much fun and amazing memories. We can't wait for the next 5K!

 FUNDRAISING EVENTS

Each semester, our chapter holds events such as Pancake Night and Moonball, a beach volleyball tournament, to fundraise for our philanthropy, Girls on the Run. These are fun ways for both members of Gamma Phi & others in the San Diego State community to get involved and raise money for an important cause!
