It Starts With You(th)!

The Teen Action Fair 2019 (TAF19) theme will be It Starts With You(th). The theme was chosen by the Gates Foundation Discovery Center Youth Ambassadors as a reminder of the power each one of us has to make a difference as well as a recognition of the unique role youth play in creating positive social change in our communities.

Celebrate youth-driven change at Teen Action Fair. Connect with youth and organizations working to make a difference in their local and global communities through volunteering, art, social justice campaigns, and more.

The celebration features hands-on activities, powerful performances by  Da’Fir, Filipino Youth Activities Drill Team, Red Eagle Soaring Native Youth Theater, Youth Division – Spectrum Dance Theater, and Zoser, a youth-led open mic, an art showcase, give back activities, and over 30 youth-driven and youth-focused organizations. Want to see what the day is like at TAF?
