Weiss, Ph.D. LEARN HOW YOU CAN CHANGE THE LIFE OF A GIRL. PLEASE VISIT US AT www.gotrhr.org FOLLOW US! @gotrhr Girls on the Run Hampton Roads @gotrhr All About Us The Girls on the Run Hampton Roads program can be found at schools and community centers in Chesapeake, Franklin City, Hampton, Gates County, Isle of Wight County, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Southampton County, Suffolk, Surry County, Virginia Beach, and York County. Our Programs & Curriculum We offer two programs with age-appropriate curricula for each - Girls on the Run and Heart & Sole. Each group meets twice a week in teams of 8-20 girls for an 10-week period. The 20-lesson program is delivered by certified Girls on the Run coaches and teaches life skills through dynamic lessons and running games. Our curriculum creatively weaves training for a 5k run with lessons that empower girls to celebrate their bodies, honor their voices, and embrace their gifts. GIRLS ON THE RUN is designed for girls in elementary school (3rd- 5th grades). The curriculum is divided into three sections: identity, connectedness, and empowerment. Elementary schools that have 6th graders are able to invite their girls to the program. HEART & SOLE is designed for girls in middle school (6th-8th grades). This curriculum allows for deeper discussion on topics more relevant to middle school girls. Heart & Sole focuses on the "Girl Wheel" which has five areas of focus: brain, heart, spirit, social, and body. Power Through Service Each Girls on the Run team creates and executes a local community service project with their coaches. This experience demonstrates to the girls the unimaginable strength that comes from serving others. Past examples include: painting "kindness" rocks for a local park, collecting supplies for animal shelters, and creating "thank yous" for teachers. Up and Running at the 5k At the end of each season, the girls are paired with a 5k buddy and together complete a non-competitive 5k event. The 5k is a celebration that includes friends, family, teachers, coaches, sponsors, and community members. Completing the 5k gives girls a tangible sense of achievement and provides them with a framework for setting and achieving life goals. Resources and Grown-Up Guide Girls on the Run provides a Grown-Up Guide for all curricula. This guide contains questions and conversation starters that can be used at home to reinforce the learning goals of the program. By stimulating conversation at home, we hope to further weave the Girls on the Run mission into the daily lives of the girls and the adults who care for and love them. Getting Your Site On Board A how-to for starting your own school or community site! 1. Obtain approval from the principal/site director to run the program at your location. 2. We will help identify a Head Coach - this person can be a teacher, counselor, parent, or other involved individual at your site. The Head Coach will work alongside the Girls on the Run Program Director throughout the season. 3. Choose two days a week to hold practices. Practices last between 75 and 90 minutes. 4. Determine a safe, dedicated space for running, walking, and other physical activities. 5. Determine a rain/severe weather location for the team. 6. Complete a Site Application at www.gotrhr.org. Getting Coaches On Board We couldn't run without them! 1. GOTR recommends having 3 to 4 coaches per site based on number of girls per team. 2. We will assist in reaching out to parents and teachers from the school and community to coach. 3. Coaches will be trained by GOTR Hampton Roads via a blended model of online modules and in-person training prior to the season start. Educators will earn 7 hours of professional development by completing our training! 4. One coach must be CPR/First Aid certified. The coach with these certifications must be present at ALL practices. 5. GOTR provides the 10-week curriculum and a "Coach Box,"

  • 2004–05 Biennial Report
    History Beazley Foundation, Incorporated was established in December 1948 with funds provided by the late Fred W. Beazley, his wife, Marie C. Beazley, and son, Fred W. Beazley, Jr., all of Portsmouth, Virginia. In February 1956, Mr. Beazley formed a companion entity, Foundation Boys Academy, to operate a private secondary school for boys, Frederick Military Academy, and, later, a college, Frederick College. Th e College was gifted to the Commonwealth of Virginia in 1968 to become a part of the Community College system and the Academy closed in 1985. Shortly thereafter, in 1986, the Charter of Foundation Boys Academy was amended to change its name to Frederick Foundation and embrace an expanded mission, including charitable, religious and educational purposes, with the continued fi nancial support of Mr. Beazley. In 1993, Frederick Foundation merged into the present Beazley Foundation. From the Foundation’s inception, the needs of community and young people have been the primary focus of Mr. Beazley’s philanthropy. Healthcare, housing, education, recreation and like concerns have resulted in substantial Foundation grants to an array of organizations and programs serving southeastern Virginia, ranging from recreation centers for both adults and children to housing projects and endowed college scholarships. Today, the Foundation remains privately endowed and neither solicits nor accepts funds or contributions from others. : 1 : President’s Message In 1959, Mr. Fred W. Beazley, the father of the Beazley Foundation, shared with an interviewer that, in establishing the Foundation, he acted “not…for gain but to give back to this community that which it gave to me,” intending to “leave the [Foundation] in such a sound state that it shall live forever.” When he died in 1974 at age 82, Mr.
