  • The Green Teen Project:  https://www.helpinghandsov.org/about-2                                                                      This volunteer-driven program gives teens ages 13–17 the chance to serve their community by mowing and raking lawns for seniors, veterans, disabled neighbors, and low-income families in need. Here’s how it works: Teens sign up and complete a brief form. Once submitted, their parent or guardian will receive a consent form to confirm participation. After consent is received, students are mailed a starter kit that includes a Green Teen t-shirt, safety glasses, and flyers to share in their neighborhood. For every 10 lawns completed, teens receive a small prize. After 30 lawns, they are invited to our summer celebration party!
