Boxes of basics teen board

What is the Teen Board?

Our Teen Board is made up of passionate high school students who volunteer their time to support Boxes of Basic’s mission. The program brings together teens from each local high school to work with mentors to develop and implement projects to meet the needs of local kids. Teens will get insight into the functions and demands of running a nonprofit organization while gaining hands-on leadership experience, collaborative project management skills and building organization and communications skills. 


2023-2024 Teen Board Projects include:


  • Develop and implement new strategies to help promote Boxes of Basics on social media.  
  • Help host a Boxes of Basics fundraising event.
  • Start Boxes of Basics clubs at local high schools for the next (2024-2025) school year.
