Celebrating Brianne Schwan: FY24 Remarkable Volunteer Award Winner!

In August, Girls on the Run HQ announced the recipients of their FY24 Remarkable Volunteer Awards, and we are beyond thrilled to share that our extraordinary volunteer and coach, Brianne Schwan, is one of the honorees! This national recognition program shines a well-deserved light on volunteers across the country who make an inspirational impact in their communities—whether as coaches, fundraisers, or steadfast supporters. And Brianne has undoubtedly earned her place among these remarkable individuals.

Meet Coach Melissa, a passionate and seasoned coach whose unwavering commitment to the mission of Girls on the Run Union County has transformed the lives of numerous girls. Melissa has been a source of inspiration, guidance, and support, helping young participants build confidence, develop resilience, and cultivate a love for physical activity. Her journey with GOTR Union County exemplifies the profound impact a dedicated mentor can have on the community.

Investing in young people today, creates a stronger, more equitable and inclusive future for all tomorrow.
