Community Outreach Co-Director

Ashlin Davila

My name is Ashlin, and I go to school in Nanuet NY. Teens4Teens is a platform that empowers young teens and allows them to be the positive change they want to see in the world. The core of my excitement regarding Teens4Teens lies in the notion of being able to help decrease, and end period poverty, an issue that remains commonly faced by teens in impoverished communities. Everyone regardless of their socioeconomic status deserves to be able to have the proper hygiene tools; Items like soap, toothpaste, deodorants, and menstrual products should be a given in everyone’s daily life, yet it is not, many find themselves facing the consequences of the inaccessibility of these bare necessities. Equity is something that I strive for, and equity is something I believe everyone should strive deeply for, because regardless of our status, or position within society, at the end of the day we are all human, we are all equal, and access to something as essential as hygiene products should be deemed a fundamental right, not a privilege.

For us, “Global Outreach”
means helping at home too

A key founding principal of teens 4 teens is that every outreach project abroad must be supplemented by a corresponding domestic project. Making the world a better place is a daunting goal, especially for a group of teens. However, when we band together, we can share our gifts to make the world safer, healthier, and easier for everyone.

Giving out and sharing across the world is pivotal, and of equal importance remain those who need support in the communities we are a part of. This is why a main focus of Teens 4 Teens is local outreach to our constituent communities. This is achieved by planning and executing monthly projects in order to better our schools, neighborhoods, towns, etc. These projects make club meetings more interesting, give back to our society, and give additional meaning to our work. By participating in local projects and helping people abroad we stand for a better collective world.
