About Us

Our History

In December 2017, a member of the Adult Advisory Board read about an organization called 100 Women Who Care and thought the idea was interesting. After researching the 100 Who Care Alliance, she realized the idea would be groundbreaking for teens in the Lakeland area and presented the idea to Anna Terlep, Anna Esterline, and Gracie Estupinan. From there, these three teens worked together to establish parameters for their newly formed organization, created the logo, and then invited three more teens (Caroline Mason, Katie Achinger, and Erin Volpe) to create a Teen Executive Board in January 2018. The Teen Executive Board consists of students from various local high schools.

Our Teens

Membership of 100 Teens Who Care Lakeland is comprised of 6th-12th grade students interested in learning about the needs of local charities and having the power to directly impact those charities with a monetary donation.


Teen members will build a philanthropic mindset and learn leadership skills in a fun environment. Members will take an active role in the needs of the Lakeland community by researching non-profit charities and presenting the needs of those charities to the group. The presenting teen will act as a "champion" for the charity. Members will learn how their donation impacted the specific charity when the winning charity is invited to the next meeting.


Teen members will benefit from 

  • Community involvement
  • Leadership opportunities
  • Service hours
