We are looking for a mentor for a 13 year old girl living in Pasadena whose father is currently battling cancer. She likes tennis, hanging out after school with friends, English, History, and PE in school, interested in becoming an Interior Designer, Drawing and Painting. Can you become her friend?
When Cancer hits the family it changes everything, especially for the child. Walk With Sally is dedicated to providing hope through our individualized mentoring and community support services to empower children experiencing trauma through a parent, guardians, or sibling's cancer journey. No one should face a loved one's cancer alone. We are looking for mentors to provide hope for these children and their families.

All mentors must successfully complete and application, interview and background checks. Mentors need to be 22 years or older.
