Do you remember when you were in high school? Almost nothing felt as important as fitting in with your peers.  Having the “right” clothes and school supplies could make all the difference in your level of confidence and self-esteem. Imagine how you might have felt if you were unable to participate in class trips or sports because you were unable to afford the fees.  Teens with Promise wants every child to have a fulfilling high school experience.     
     
Teens with Promise operates a "Teen Shop" dedicated to providing teenagers with the supplies they need to start and stay in school at no cost.                ____________________________
