True Star’s innovative social enterprise tackles critical challenges by offering transformative education and hands-on training in media arts and digital marketing to local youth. Our comprehensive curriculum spans journalism, video production, digital marketing, and more, equipping local youth with the essential skills to thrive in the digital age. Through our “Emerging Creative Leaders Team,” advanced students operate a creative agency that meets the marketing and storytelling needs of small businesses and nonprofits. This model not only delivers high-quality, discounted digital assets to organizations on Chicago’s South and West Sides but also provides our students with invaluable hands-on experience, impressive portfolio-building opportunities, and expanded professional networks.
By enhancing the digital presence of local businesses and organizations, True Star fosters community development and empowers youth to take pride in their contributions, ultimately driving positive change and fostering a sense of ownership and agency in their neighborhoods.
