Hey Chicago Go Girls! Remember Girl Forward, the beneficiary of our last Go Girl Live event doing great things for adolescent refugee girls in Chicago?

Here’s a chance to support their educational programs and get involved in the community.

Go Girl Chicago will be joining Girl Forward in running in the Chicago Women’s 5K on June 23, 2013 to raise money for its summer education programming, Camp Girl Forward. Join us to make a difference, meet other women travelers and have loads of fun, too!
