Mission: Ten at a Time has turned into an incredible growth opportunity for each of us. We are each given the opportunity to do better, be kinder and most importantly live more aware of what’s going on both in our own communities and around the world. Being a member of Ten at a Time gives us a venue that empowers us to research the needs people have, make important financial choices, be accountable for our choice and then present to our peers in a leadership capacity.
Results: When we started this organization in 2014, our original goal was to allow each of us to experience what it felt like to help someone in need and to celebrate the accomplishment of being part of a group that gave away $1,000. We met that goal and had so much fun doing it that we now want to share our experience with as many teens as possible. Ten at a Time has just kicked off our 4th year of giving and we now have 4 chapters of 10 kids each – that’s 40 teens learning, giving and creating awareness. To date, Ten at a Time has collectively donated over $4,300 of our own money to almost 40 different organizations and people in need around the world. By May 2018 those numbers will double to over $8,000 donated to 80 organizations.
