The desire to serve neighbors and the community while enjoying camaraderie with other service minded teens and their parents was the driving force behind these high school students. Through the organization, teens wanted the opportunity to acquire leadership skills by holding board positions and simultaneously  find motivation through guest speakers who would lecture at monthly membership meetings.
 
In it’s inaugural year, 66 teens joined Teens Give Back. The organization provided more than 2,200 volunteer hours to 11 different charities throughout San Antonio.

Currently, 43% of their cotton is sustainably sourced, and their current goal is to increase that to 100% by 2020. In addition, their garment collecting initiative – where anyone, anywhere can bring their old clothes to a local H&M store – has already saved a collective 32,000 tons of fabric through re-wearing, reusing, and recycling. The surplus split between social projects and recycling projects by the H&M Foundation.

Some examples are raising money for those in need, volunteer for the homeless shelter, or volunteer at the animal shelter. In way to give back to the world, I plan on volunteering at the Laurel County Animal Shelter. There are many innocent animals in need of a good home and I would like to help them. In the future, I could prevent many animals from being put down or being stray animals. I plan to start an adoption program to help all animals. Animals live an innocent life just like us humans, they shouldn't be mistreated. If we come together, we could change the world.]]> 2018-10-03 14:31:59 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahcamp30/SocialResponsibility/wish/288661826
