By way of our C2L-PHL program, Philly teens spent the summer working on ideas to make our city a better place to live and got paid in the process! One of our summer providers, Launchpad, hosts a program for participants to envision launching startup’s that use tech-based solutions to address specific challenges in their communities. At the conclusion of summer, the youth pitch their startups to a panel of judges for a chance to win thousands of dollars in prizes!
