About Us

Teenswork has always been devoted to mentoring students in an entrepreneurial way through real-world experiences.
Over the years we have witnessed how much of an impact Teenswork has made on students' lives. This is what has inspired the young entrepreneurs' program.
Teenswork Young Entrepreneurs is a program dedicated to the growth and development of youth across the nation.

As students reach the end of our program, they are given the opportunity to present and pitch their business ideas. Teenswork will assist them with the development of their business plan. Once proving feasibility, they will receive a grant to start their company. Teenswork will always remain a source of support through every step of their business growth, always continuing to offer guidance.

Teenswork Roots

The year was 1991. The Gulf War ended, Super Nintendo was released, the very first-ever website was created, the delightful Robin Williams introduced the world to a grown Peter Pan in the unforgettable Hook, Nirvana released Smells Like Teen Spirit-what an incredible year it was to be alive. The 90’s were just beginning to take shape. But what was another first that year? It was August 24th, 1991. After 9 months of nurturing and preparation the big day had finally arrived.

Teenswork was born!!! On a bright warm summer day, when it happened.... the very first box of Teenswork chocolate were sold. Sealing the fate of two men with one common goal: To make the world a better place, one box of chocolate at a time.

Teenswork started as a sales company aimed at helping youth. As years passed the dream evolved, our youth program took on thousands of students. We reinvented ourselves to adapt the needs and growth of our youth. Today we are extremely proud to have 5 different Teenswork divisions striving toward one single goal. To create positive change for students throughout our communities.

Our Mission

“To create confident students today, preparing to be the capable leaders of tomorrow”

Young Entrepreneurs' main goal is to provide promising futures for our youth, through business and self-employment programs, equipping our students with a strong foundation to succeed.
