"TeenLife Boston provides the opportunities that suit everyone and it allows me to search for the opportunities that I have a passion for. It connects me with the community and the events that are happening in my area. I highly recommend this to anyone who's interested in looking for more opportunities. It's also a great database that can be trusted."

"I just wanted to thank you for helping me access TeenLife Boston. Thanks to you, I just got back from a life-changing week at the Sierra Student Coalition's Summer Environmental Leader Training Program...after signing up 10 days in advance! I'm so glad I got in touch with you and didn't miss out on what turned out to be an unbelievably amazing experience."
-- Jen L., Newton North High School
"Assisting with TeenLife Boston's annual Community Service Fair was definitely one of my favorite volunteering experiences in high school. In high school, there are so many different things that produce stress and it can be very difficult to cope with it all. Very quickly, it becomes apparent to all high school students that coping with stress is essential to an enjoyable experience. For me, volunteering is a great way to relieve excess stress. Ending a day with the knowledge that in some way you have made a difference in another person's life is one of the best and most rewarding feelings. Helping out also adds something different to the monotony of schoolwork, sleep, and hanging out with friends."
-- Matt R., Sharon High School Senior

Summer Programs
"As the Founder and Director of Internship Connection, I have been very pleased with the interest that has been generated as a TeenLife Boston Featured Member. We have heard from wonderful families and been impressed with the quality of the students who read about our program on TeenLife Boston.
"We placed many of those students on internships in a wide variety of fields including positions in pre-law, government, environment, the film industry, finance and more. The students' workplace mentors have been so impressed with their maturity and work-ethic.
"I have found that being able to submit program descriptions to the newsletter as well as calendar updates has been an effective marketing tool. As we expand our program offerings, we look forward to continuing our relationship with TeenLife Boston."
