TEENSWHOCARE is a 501(c)(3) non-profit created by ninth grader Sameeksha Dangi that aims to provide meaningful volunteer opportunities for high school students and hone their leadership skills in the process. Some of our opportunities include teaching a tech class for elderly citizens at your local library, coaching a fitness class for those recovering from mental illnesses, or harvesting crops to feed those in need.
To sign up for these opportunities simply create an account, fill a short application, and choose your preferred date and location.

Your application will be reviewed within 2-3 business days.
