Mentor one child, change two lives. Volunteers are needed to mentor students in the Jamestown, Falconer, Frewsburg, Southwestern and Bemus Point school districts. Mentors and mentees meet once weekly at school or out in the community where they talk about school and friendships and make plans for the future. Volunteers offer guidance, support and encouragement to youth, helping them build their confidence, self-esteem, network, and a stronger connection to their school and the community.
