WELCOME TO ACTIVATE

hey, i'm ariella! my pronouns are she/her and i'm autistic! i'm also very passionate about making a positive change in the world in the way we (teenagers) are looking at our own mental health and being educated about the world around us, and making social and political changes to make the world a better place. i created activate as a way to easily access things like petitions, and news sources you can trust, and easy ways to educate yourself on super important matters, because i, like so many others believe that change needs to be made! 

from, ariella :)

WHERE DID THE IDEA COME FROM?

Just like lots of us...I have the most messy sleep schedule. To be honest I basically have no sleep schedule at all, so naturally I thought of Activate late at night. I know that if this had existed for me earlier I would've really liked it, so I wanted to create something for everyone else to enjoy!
