A two-image collage showcasing Girls on the Run. The left image features a young girl posing confidently in front of a large 'Girls on the Run' banner. She wears a bright pink tutu, a pink feather boa, and has 'GOTR' painted on her face, flexing her arms with a big smile. The right image shows the same girl, now slightly older, smiling alongside a woman wearing a green 'Girls on the Run' t-shirt. The girl also wears a matching green cape, and both are beaming with happiness outdoors on a sunny day.
