Teen Programs

​Generation SERVE teens are community leaders!

After years of developing a love of volunteering through Generation SERVE's family volunteering and programming opportunities, teens asked for the opportunity to become more involved in Generation SERVE.

Generation SERVE listened and worked with our teens to create the Teen Advisory Board (TAB), and Teen Service Days. Our newest addition to teen programming is our partnership with I Live Here I Give Here - See Teens Give.

Support our Teen Advisory Board Merchandise Fundraiser by purchasing a winter shirt or sweatshirt. Link to buy a shirt: https://bit.ly/TAB-Shirts

Teen Opportunities

Teen Service Days

Designed and led by members of the Teen Advisory Board, Teen Service Days are just for Teens, ages 13-18! Teens interested in volunteering with like-minded teens can register on our calendar (be sure to filter the search for your location). Every month there are new opportunities at nonprofits that support all types of community needs from animals, to seniors, children and families, to the environment, and more. 

The best part is that Generation SERVE activities are free, we track your service hours for you, and when you earn the required hours we automatically apply for the President's Volunteer Service Award for you.

Teen Advisory Board

For those teens who are interested in serving Generation SERVE in a unique capacity, we offer the Teen Advisory Board (TAB). The board meets monthly with a one-year commitment and has 3 subcommittees: the Programs Committee, the Fundraising Committee, and the Outreach Committee. Applications for the 2025-26 school year will open in May 2025. Learn how to apply here.
Summer Programs
2025 summer programs are being redesigned to meet the needs of teens and families. If you have ideas about partnerships and structure we would love to hear them, e-mail Teen Programs.
