Thank you NPF
for a Safe Place for Teens to have fun
Is it possible for teens to have fun on a Friday night without soda, candy, alcohol or drugs? If you asked the party-goers at last night’s TGIF at The Noble Path Foundation, the answer is a resounding YES.
Ping Pong, music, darts, healthy snacks, movies, video arcade games and a live action murder-mystery-whodunnit were ALL on deck
🥳 We’re very excited to collaborate with The Noble Path Foundation to provide a safe space and fun activities for teens choosing a healthy lifestyle
