A Message from Our CEO

"I was in high school 33 years ago when DoSomething was founded. The times may change, but the one thing that remains true is young people are hungry to do something good, to have an impact, and to make a difference. I’m proud to walk hand in hand with today’s youth as they take action daily to protect their communities and change the world. Join me in celebrating DoSomething’s 33rd anniversary and our members’ impact by joining our 3 days of impact challenge.” — DeNora Getachew, CEO, DoSomething
