LIVE UNITED Story
Students Supporting Their Schools Wescosville Elementary fifth grader Maeve Yanes decided to help her school by building birdhouses for their outdoor classroom program. With the help of TeenWorks and four other students, she created the Wescosville Elementary Construction Owls club, they created 13 birdhouses, nest shelves, and feeders. Maeve is also now a TeenWorks board member.

“We could not have completed [this project] without the generosity of people in the Lehigh Valley that donate money to United Way TeenWorks for this to happen!  Thank you TeenWorks for funding our project!”
