25 Years of Girls on the Run Georgia: Karla Sadler

This month, we’re thrilled to highlight Karla Sadler, a dedicated Girls on the Run Georgia volunteer, supporter, and member of our Empower Giving Society. Her involvement with GOTR started with a simple favor—a friend asked Karla to be a 5K Buddy for her daughter at a Girls on the Run 5K. As an avid runner, biker, and hiker, she was happy to join in. But what she experienced that day was far more than just a fun run.

25 Years of Girls on the Run Georgia: Tes Sobomehin Marshall

This month, we’re thrilled to highlight Tes Sobomehin Marshall, our dedicated Girls on the Run Georgia 5K Race Manager, volunteer, and supporter. Tes first became involved with Girls on the Run Georgia while working as a Guest Advocate at Big Peach Running Co. She regularly set up information tables at race events and quickly connected with our program’s mission. Through these events, she met Executive Director Lea Rolfes, who not only welcomed her into the Girls on the Run community but also supported Tes’s own running events. When the opportunity for a new Race Manager opened in 2015, Tes officially stepped into her leadership role.
