About
All it takes is 30 minutes of your time.
Having lunch with a student can lead to a lasting, and profound impact no just for the child, but for your entire community. It will change YOUR life.
Our Student Advocacy and Mentoring Partnership (STAMP) program matches good students who have the odds stacked against them, with a caring adult who can provide them the guidance, wisdom, and support they need to be successful. As a dedicated mentor, you'll spend time with your student just a few times a month, and see how your time changes a life.
Every child in our life-changing program makes a pledge to maintain at least a 2.5 GPA, all A's, B's and C's, stay crime and drug free, and meet with their mentors at least twice a month throughout the school year.
Right now our greatest needs are for STAMP mentors at the following high schools:
South Fort Myers HS - 5 female mentors
Ida S Baker - 1 female and 2 male mentors
Island Coast HS - 3 male mentors
East Lee County High School - 4 female mentors
Lehigh Senior - 3 female mentors
Riverdale High School - 2 female mentors
Mariner High School - 1 female mentor and 1 male mentor
North Fort Myers HS - 1 female mentor
