Teen Volunteers in Action (TVIA)
Teen Volunteers in Action is a group for parents and sons who are dedicated to facilitating philanthropy and leadership development for teenage boys. This is a great way to have shared experiences with your boys in grades 7-12 while making a positive impact in your community. (It's also a great way to fulfill mandatory service hours 😉) There is a new member prospective meeting this Sunday (2/23). Please click this link for more information.
Our organization is dedicated to facilitating philanthropy and leadership development for our teenage sons. Through family commitment and shared experiences, we believe TVIA can help shape lives and make a positive impact in our community. We are six chapters strong across San Diego and membership includes young men in grades 7-12 and their families.
