Back in Action!

Hey Everybody!

Circe, Sadie, and Roz have taken the past year off to focus on school and college applications, and I'm happy to say that we have completed the long journey and are finally settled in at college!

So what's next for the Teen Eco Warriors?

Since we are busy in college now (and some of us are very far away!), we have put a new leader in place, and Circe is serving as director and coordinator.

Who is this new leader? Is she AWESOME?

Her name is Katya, and she is TOTALLY AWESOME!!

Katya is in 8th grade (the age we were when we founded T.E.W.) at the Anne Richards School for Young Women Leaders in Austin, TX. She is a bright, studious young lady with some SUPER SWEET ideas for crafts, events, and workshops. Look forward to some posts from her in the future about recycled crafts!

As Teenage Eco Warriors continues in this "second generation" led by Katya, we hope to raise more money for our account on Kiva.org and inspire the young and old to reduce, reuse, and recycle!

Their Mission

Displaying their typical cheekiness, sense of fun and zeal, these high school students friends since childhood, christened themselves The Teenage Eco Warriors and committed themselves to using their superpowers for good. They also committed to coerce their friends, by any means possible, to join them.

The concerns of The Teenage Eco Warriors are concerned about humanitarian and environmental issues worldwide. Their twofold mission is to identify critical environmental and humanitarian situations and to take action with engaging, effective volunteerism. Secondly, they seek to invoke power of the internet by blogging about their Teen activism. The TEW blog is a teen-written chronicle of their ideas, actions and outcomes that will serve as an interactive template to guide and inspire other small groups of like-minded teens to take action. They believe that their combined efforts will make a difference in the world.
This blog will chronicle all TEW projects as well as the efforts of other teens that have been inspired by their example, creating a forum for the exchange and innovation of teen activism ideas. Additionally the blog contains informative how-to’s and comedic craft tutorial videos.

It is their ambition to be continually inspired by their world to make a difference, and to inspire the world through their own teen brand of humanitarian and ecological activism while encouraging others to do the same.

The Teenage Eco Warrior founders are high school students in Austin, TX at LASA, The Liberal Arts and Science Academy, an urban public magnet school that educates socially responsible leaders, problem solvers, and thinkers through a nationally recognized, rigorous, innovative, interdisciplinary curriculum.
