Area V

Teen Marcellus Metcalf Welcome to Area V of Top Teens of America! I am pleased to
Area V TTA President introduce myself to you! I am Teen Marcellus Metcalf, the Area V
Top Teen President. As president, I want to encourage you to take
advantage of the many opportunities to help change and mold the
world through service with other teens and our mentoring
organization, Top Ladies of Distinction, Inc.
Every idea and opinion is valued and welcomed as we volunteer to
help our senior citizens, change the status of women, beautify our
communities, build partnerships within our communities, develop
leadership and debate skills, participate in spelling bees and speech
competitions, learn about bully prevention, and raise money for St.

Jude’s, March of Dimes, Sickle Cell Anemia, and UNCF. Let us not
forget the Blessings in the Backpack initiative which feeds children
over the weekends. Our potential is endless. Our motto is
“Participation is our Foundation as Leaders of Tomorrow”. We
serve our communities with enthusiasm, energy, and excitement.
Just as our communities are made better through our service, we
are forever changed through our service.
Let us grow our organization to new heights. Together we can! I am
excited and happy to be a part of such a wonderful group of people.
I look forward to serving and working with all of you.

Sincerely,

Teen Marcellus Metcalf
Area V Top Teens President
