Launched in 2006, Moontown is an award-winning non-profit organization that offers experiential education and leadership development opportunities in entrepreneurship, sustainability, and social impact media for disadvantaged teens and young adults. Moontown’s goal is to provide the next generation of leaders with a real-world, hands-on platform to cultivate the knowledge, skills and abilities needed to develop innovative solutions to the most pressing environmental, social and economic challenges of our time.
Moontown Associate, Rob Arthur, explains the environmental and economic impact of installing solar powered trash compactors in Downtown Seattle to Q13 Fox.
We seek to challenge and inspire youth to take action as informed environmental stewards, community leaders, and agents of social change by providing access to individual, community, and economic development opportunities, resources and role models that are not accessible through traditional access points.
Our approach is systems-based in scope and designed to help youth identify their unique talents and interests and consequently learn how to leverage them as assets in the marketplace.
