Many Jewish parents are asking the same questions:

Is my teen prepared to respond confidently to antisemitism?
Do they feel comfortable talking about Israel?
Do they have Jewish friends who share their values?

If these questions have crossed your mind, we'd love to meet you.

NC TeenZ is a grassroots Zionist youth organization for Jewish teens in grades 8–12 in the Charlotte area. Our mission is to help teens build strong Jewish identities, develop confidence in discussing Israel and antisemitism, form lasting friendships, and become tomorrow's Jewish leaders—all while having fun together.

We're hosting informational sessions for prospective parents:

Thursday, August 20, 6:30PM – Private residence in Weddington
Wednesday, August 26, 6:30PM – Private residence near the JCC
Or schedule a virtual meeting at your convenience.

In the comments, let us know which session you'd like to attend.

We had a fantastic time at our Escape Room social at Waxhaw Escape 🔐

Teens worked together to solve clues, think under pressure, and beat the clock. More importantly, they connected, laughed, and built friendships in a meaningful, in-person way.

These are the moments that strengthen confidence, teamwork, and community.

More events coming soon!

⚽ Charlotte FC night with NC TeenZ

Food. Friends. Soccer. Community.

We gathered for a pre-game hangout and then headed to the stadium to cheer on Charlotte FC — including Israeli players Liel Abada and Idan Toklomati.

These are the moments that build confidence, friendships, and Jewish pride in our teens!

What a great night with our NC TeenZ crew!

21 teens joined us on Sunday (not all pictured) for an engaging session with Hailey Stern, StandWithUs National Educator. She led a timely and thoughtful conversation about current events and how they connect to Israel’s history.

🥙 Food from the always-popular Yafo Kitchen
🥐 Delicious hamantaschen from Liat Gabay-Fisher

Both were a big hit.

⚽ Next up: Charlotte FC vs Miami next weekend — teens, parents and alums!

We have 3 tickets left, DM me if you want in.
