Star Teens Club

Star Teens launched in 2021 to support teenagers who are growing up in extreme poverty with few safe opportunities. During a critical stage of life, when many young people are seeking direction, the program provides positive relationships, creative outlets, and hope for what’s possible.

• Many attend schools without music or art programs, so we bring creativity and expression to them.
• Led by our college scholarship students who serve as mentors and positive role models.
• Uses the arts, mentorship, and encouragement to help teens stay focused and confident.
• Provides a safe, welcoming space where teens feel seen, supported, and valued.
• Includes mental health support to help students navigate stress and challenges.
• The most meaningful moment is when a Star Teen earns a scholarship and steps into a future full of possibility.
