From the Gardening Angels to Global Citizens
Teens Inc Teaching Entrepreneurship for Life through
Local Service, Conscientious Fundraising, Global Immersion.
The Global Classroom Project is a curriculum, process, and ecosystem designed to empower young people to give back to their local communities, create an ethical start-up business as a funding platform, and gain transformative global competency while gaining valuable 21st century leadership, mindfulness, entrepreneurial, and collaboration skills. We aim to help students and teachers to see the world differently inside and outside of the classroom. We call the three phases of the ecosystem: On the Ground, In the Clouds and Around the Planet
​
Below is the calendar of local service conscientious fundraising opportunities and global citizenship. This is the map for our journey. Your teen will earn the service and immersion trip while making a difference along the way. Several more service opportunities will be added to the calendar and these events act as a way to build and prepare the strongest team possible
