5 hrs confidence:

Como estão unidos/Como a união faz a força,

Explanation:
Como/Porque estão unidos, estes jovens/adolescentes têm/obtêm sucesso em ajudar a sua comunidade.
Como/Porque a união faz a força, estes jovens/adolescentes têm/obtêm sucesso em ajudar a sua comunidade.

Seria como eu traduziria, pois para mim "strength in numbers" neste contexto provém do ditado popular em inglês "There's strength in numbers", que quer dizer "A união faz a força".
