Teens with Heartsongs empowers teens with essential life skills, an introduction to philanthropy, and the experience of building meaningful community. Through compassionate action and purpose-driven fundraising, these young leaders make a direct impact on the lives of hundreds of children and families each year at Children’s National Hospital in Washington, D.C. With the housing problem solved with adequate funds to support temporary housing and transportation costs for patients' families, the program now supports hospital-based initiatives that provide comfort items during unexpected stays and healing through creative therapies like music and art. With every effort, Teens with Heartsongs brings hope, relief, and joy to those facing medical challenges—proving that even the youngest changemakers can make a lasting difference. Email info@teenswithheartsongs.org for additional information.
