ATLANTA, April 27, 2018 – Randstad US is returning as a volunteer ally for nationwide 5K events hosted by Girls on the Run (GOTR), a nonprofit organization that inspires girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum that creatively integrates running. The mission, vision and core values of GOTR are well aligned with Randstad’s passion for transforming lives through education, knowledge sharing and providing today’s youth the necessary skills to live well-rounded lives.
Randstad hopes to touch the working lives of 500 million people worldwide by 2030. With partners like Girls on the Run, Randstad is able to positively influence the next generation of the workforce and serve a much greater purpose beyond the four walls of the workplace.
