Meet DoSomething’s Super Tuesday Voters!

In 2018, the DoSomething community powered historic youth voter turnout. Last Tuesday, members around the country voted in state primaries and took the first step to deciding this year’s election. Now it’s your turn. Take 2 minutes and register to vote at your current address.

YES, you have our attention, Amanda… our (super acrobatic) intern who did a kick into a split on TikTok to drive denim donations.

It’s not Teens for Jeans… it’s QUEENS for Jeans, with Adele (third from the right), our Campaigns Associate and true queen (in every sense of the word), which brought in 765 pairs for local homeless shelters.

In honor of National Women’s Day (March 8)... we dialed up 10 young women changing the world right now, along with a whole bunch of inventions you miiiight not know women are responsible for. (Spoiler alert: You can thank a woman for Wi-Fi.)

My two favorite high schools this week are… Tinley Park (Illinois) and Kempsville High (Virginia Beach, Virginia) who added to the 100,000+ pairs of jeans the DoSomething community collected.

Every week, one DoSomething staffer is awarded a stuffed Penguin for outstanding work… and Savasti, our Senior Manager of Talent Acquisition, took him to a pizza-making class!

More staff impact on Teens for Jeans… thanks to Alisha (with donations from Baruch College), Sharon + Sahara + Amanda and, whadaya know, the entire staff!
