- A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
Think of a person that helped you while growing up. Someone you looked up to... Someone who cared... Someone who inspired you and helped you on your journey...
All of us had mentors in some shape or form growing up. Now it's your turn to GIVE BACK!
As a mentor, you will help youth who may be dealing with issues such as low self-esteem, social isolation, family problems, peer conflict, academic challenges or poor decision-making skills by being a positive adult role model and by buidling a strong, impactful relationship.
Spend amazing quality time with a youth and change their path. Make a tremendous impact, forge a powerful new relationship and have an incredibly fun and rewarding time the whole way through!
