☀️Heading to the .lantern for summer shows?
Good news! Supporting local teens just got even easier.

All summer long, you can donate directly to the Jefferson Teen Center during Lantern shows. No extra stops, no extra steps, just a simple way to help keep our programs thriving while you enjoy a night out.

With this year’s budget cuts, next year’s programs are at risk, and that impacts the teens who rely on us for connection, creativity, and support. But we believe in this community, and we know we show up for our kids.

So on your next night out, consider donating, every bit helps our teens shine ✨
