Show Notes

What does teen-led community impact look like? For Alejandra, a Miami high school senior, it's Literary Speaking — a nonprofit offering free academic tutoring and mentorship to underserved students and adults.

In this Season 5 premiere of Simple Acts, Big Impact, Alejandra breaks down how she built her program from the ground up, the challenges of leading as a teenager, and why mentorship matters.

This podcast has now featured nearly 200 young changemakers over four years — and this episode kicks off Season 5 in a big way.
