Teen Programs

Our Teen Programs engage teens early and often. Starting with enrichment programs for middle school children, the guidance continues, preparing adolescents for college and careers through interactive workshops/SAT review courses, seminars, and leadership programs.

Tuesday’s Children also offers specific career shadow days and career planning workshops for students graduating from college and adults re-entering the workforce. Tuesday’s Children partners with respected organizations such as Howard Greene & Associates, Fordham University, Kaplan TestPrep, Habitat for Humanity and Outward Bound to develop targeted programs.

We assist students interested in exploring college and internship opportunities, actively engaging them in the process, sharing the knowledge and tools needed to manage their own careers throughout their lives.

Ashinaga is a nonprofit organization based in Tokyo, Japan, which for over 40 years has been providing financial and emotional support to children who have lost one or both parents due to illness, accident, disaster, or suicide. Each year Ashinaga provides scholarships to more than 6,000 orphaned students in Japan, and total academic loans and scholarships disbursed exceed $22 million annually. More than 80,000 students have been able to obtain higher education with help from Ashinaga. In 2000, Ashinaga expanded its activities to include orphans in other countries, holding international summer camps for orphans in Japan from 2000-2007. These camps featured participation by some 440 orphans from 21 countries, including children who lost parents in the 9/11 attacks. 

2011 marks the 10^th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks and Ashinaga would like to honor the memories of victims of those attacks by providing a four-year scholarship to study at Waseda University in Tokyo, Japan, for a student who lost a parent or both parents in the 9/11 attacks.
