iStart Valley Alumni Launch ServicePro to Empower NYC Teens

New York, NY - Two visionary alumni of iStart Valley's prestigious High School Internship, David Gutin and Anton Liang, have transformed their entrepreneurial experience into an impactful initiative-ServicePro, a groundbreaking platform designed to connect NYC teens with meaningful community service opportunities.

With New York City facing increasing challenges in maintaining its cleanliness and livability, ServicePro steps up as a much-needed solution. This innovative platform bridges high school students and nonprofit organizations, enabling teens to engage in volunteer work that revitalizes their neighborhoods while fulfilling school service-hour requirements.

From iStart Valley Interns to Changemakers

iStart Valley, a leading accelerator for entrepreneurial talent, offers a highly immersive five-month internship that shapes high schoolers into future industry leaders. Through hands-on projects and cutting-edge mentorship, interns gain an unshakable entrepreneurial mindset.

David and Anton, both graduates of this program, leveraged the skills they honed at iStart Valley to launch ServicePro. Their dedication and persistence transformed a simple idea into a fully independent platform that now serves over 15,000 students across 75+ NYC schools. By integrating technology and strategic outreach, they have made it easier than ever for teens to engage with nonprofit organizations, contribute to their communities, and foster a culture of civic responsibility.

Making an Impact in NYC

ServicePro allows teens to enter their interests and locations to find the best community service opportunities near them. The platform has:

* 100+ community service opportunities listed on the website.
* 75+ NYC schools engaged, reaching over 15,000 students.
* Partnered with most of the specialized high schools in NYC, including Brooklyn Tech, the largest school in the country.
* Grown into a seven-member team committed to expansion and impact.
* Attracted 2,500 site visitors this month alone.

Authentic Testimonial from a Student Volunteer

"ServicePro has been a game-changer for me. It connected me to opportunities that aligned with my interests, allowing me to give back to my community while building valuable skills. I've made a real difference, and I recommended it to my friends!" - Student Volunteer.

Scaling Beyond NYC

With an expanding reach, ServicePro is now collaborating with global student-run nonprofit organizations through Instagram and social media promotions. Their vision is to empower even more students to take ownership of their communities and develop leadership skills through service.

A Future Built on Service and Leadership

David and Anton's journey-from iStart Valley interns to social entrepreneurs-exemplifies how experiential learning fosters real-world impact. Their relentless drive and passion for civic engagement continue to inspire NYC teens to step up, serve, and shape a better tomorrow.
