PROJECT NEXTGEN AGENCY

Every day, talented young people in our community graduate from school with potential, drive, and ambition but no real-world experience, no professional portfolio, and no clear path forward. At the same time, local small businesses are struggling to stay visible in an increasingly digital world, without the resources to compete online.
Project NexGen Agency is where those two realities meet and both change forever.
NexGen Agency is a youth-powered digital marketing agency built entirely on the talent of teens and young adults ages 16–21 from right here in the DMV. These aren’t students doing classroom simulations or fake projects. They are trained professionals learning AI-powered tools, managing real client accounts, responding to real customer reviews, creating real content, and delivering real results for local businesses in Baltimore, Prince George’s County, Washington D.C., and Alexandria.
They don’t practice work. They do work.

Under The Co-Op Project’s workforce development program, each young person goes through a structured training curriculum before being assigned live client accounts. They learn to use the same professional tools used by marketing agencies across the country. They are supervised, mentored, and held to real performance standards. And when they complete the program, they leave with something most young people their age don’t have  a proven track record, a professional portfolio, and the confidence that comes from knowing they’ve already succeeded in the real world.

The connection between these teens and the small businesses they serve isn’t just professional it’s deeply human. A teen from PG County helping a local restaurant owner protect their reputation online. A young person from Baltimore writing content that brings new customers through the door of a family-owned boutique. Youth and community, investing in each other.
This is workforce development that actually works — because the work is actually real.

They Are Ready. Are You?
We have already selected our founding cohort of 5 teens. They have been chosen. They are waiting. They are ready to work.
The only thing standing between these five young people and the opportunity that could change the trajectory of their lives is funding.
No grant has come through yet. No corporate sponsor has stepped up yet. Right now, in this moment, it is everyday people like you who have the power to launch something historic.
Your donation doesn’t go into a general fund. It goes directly into the hands of a young person who has already earned their seat at the table. All they need is someone to believe in them enough to open the door.
Five teens. One founding cohort. One chance to be part of something that starts right now.

If you believe that young people deserve real opportunities — and that our local businesses deserve real support this is your moment to make both happen at once.
