Celebrating Impact and Empowerment: A Sneaker Soirée Recap

Custom designed sneakers up for auction.

On Wednesday, April 24, District Winery was filled with inspiration and purpose as we gathered for the Girls on the Run - DC Sneaker Soirée. This celebratory event marked an important moment in our mission to empower young girls across the District.

The live auction stole the show, with generous donors bidding generously to support our cause. From unique experiences to coveted items, every bid made a direct impact on our ability to inspire girls to lead joyful, healthy lives.

Our silent auction was equally exciting, featuring a curated selection of items generously donated by local businesses and supporters. Attendees had the chance to bid on everything from fitness packages to sports memorabilia, all while championing the empowerment of young girls.

A highlight of the evening was the inspiring remarks delivered by Girls on the Run - DC Executive Director, Devoria Armstead. Her passion for empowering girls and building a brighter future was palpable, serving as a rallying cry for all in attendance.

As we reflect on evening, we're filled with gratitude for our incredible community of supporters. Their generosity and dedication ensure that we can continue to create a world where every girl knows her limitless potential.
