“Each day 4800 teens smoke their first cigarette. Almost 2 million become regular smokers every year.” —AMERICAN LUNG ASSOCIATION, 2002


The Mission To give the teens a fun but safe alternative to drugs and violence on weekend nights. This concept is called positive prevention.

Our Solution To take the House of Teens organization to cities across the U.S. and in Canada. We provides teens with “positive prevention” through concert events on a continual basis.

Organizational Summary & Overview (the concept) House of Teens, Inc. (H.O.T.) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, incorporated in the state of Nevada.

to help teens with issues in their lives. Items such as abuse, neglect, drug & alcohol addiction, teen pregnancy, suicide and homelessness can be addressed.

Fact: 99% of all teens love music.

Goal: To visit U.S. and Canadian cities within five years. The total cost is $30 million, with the cost for the first year being $6.8 million. Our immediate need is the first year’s cost.

How much would you give to help save kids’ lives?
