Lauren Seroyer is a 16-year-old high school student committed to being the change she wants like to see in her community. After interacting with
a fellow student who confided in her that he did not have enough food at home, the honor roll student immediately knew that she had to do something to help. As a result, she developed the Community Assistance & Resource Effort (CARE) Closet program which provides students with completely confidential on-site access to a school-based food pantry. After the successful implementation of the program at her school, she competed, as the only teen participant, in a United Way shark-tank style competition and won $25,000 that allowed her to place CARE Closets in high schools throughout Gwinnett County, GA, the largest county in the state.
