I understand that the risk of becoming exposed to or infected by COVID-19 at Girls Inc. might result from the actions, omissions, or negligence of myself and others, including, but not limited to, Girls Inc. employees, volunteers and program participants and their families.
I voluntarily agree to assume all of the foregoing risks and accept sole responsibility for any injury to my youth(s) or myself (including, but not limited to, personal injury, disability, and death), illness, damage, loss, claim, liability, or expense, of any kind, that I or my youth(s) may experience or incur in connection with my girl(s) attendance at Girls Inc. On my behalf, and on behalf of my youth(s), I hereby release, covenant not to sue, discharge, and hold harmless Girls Inc., its employees, volunteers, and partners, of and from the Claims, including all liabilities, claims, actions, damages, costs or expenses of any kind arising out of or relating thereto.
