🩷💙 Our Greenville Chapter Teens Built the Blueprint! 💙🩷

Our Greenville Chapter teens proudly represented Greenville, SC, at the 73rd Mid-Atlantic Regional Teen Leadership Conference, "The Pink and Blue Print," in Greensboro, NC, where they conducted the business of the Mid-Atlantic Region of Jack and Jill of America, Inc.

Throughout the conference, they participated in leadership development sessions, business meetings, and memorable fellowship activities while building new friendships with teens from across the region. It was an epic experience filled with growth, leadership, and lasting memories.

During Community Service Day, our teens joined more than 500 regional teens in serving six North Carolina schools by preparing teacher appreciation kits, assembling care packages, organizing classrooms, beautifying school spaces, and creating encouraging messages for students and staff.

We are incredibly proud of the leadership, service, and excellence our teens demonstrated throughout the conference. The future of Jack and Jill is bright! 🩷💙✨
