Why Join SVP Teens?
The world we were born into is so messed up. We've had to grow up hearing constant stories of discrimination, abuse of power, conflict, poverty, violence, and hatred, all on a planet that humans have done irreversible damage to and aren't taking sufficient action to save.
​
Living in this world can be discouraging, and it often feels like as a young individual, there is nothing you can do to offset the millions of people who don't care enough to speak up and take action for what they believe in.
​
As an individual, one can feel incredibly powerless to address the issues that you care about.
​
Many teens have taken to 'Instagram activism' by reposting various posts on their Instagram stories, starting petitions, and changing their profile pictures. Because of this, WE KNOW that there are teens out there who care about these issues. The problem is that most teens don't know how they, as individuals, can make a substantial or meaningful difference.
SVP Teens is a place for those who care to come together, because we can accomplish so much more together than as individuals. Rather than meaningless social media posts, we raise real money, learn from real people, donate to real charities, and have a real impact in the lives of others.
​
SVP Teens is a place where teens are empowered to take MEANINGFUL ACTION towards adressing the constant injustice and inequality that surrounds us.
