  • 6 people are interested

Did you have a mentor in your life who helped you get to where you are today? Many first generation immigrant and refugee youth do not have natural mentors who can network with them and teach them how to be successful in America.

This role is a limited role with opportunities to transition into a team mentor role with a high school team. This fall, we are looking for 2-3 individuals who would like to participate in an open career hour/study hall hour at the NE library once a month. Students will likely vary each time.

Mission Statement

Global FC exists to bridge diverse cultures to come together, forming just communities where all are free to be fully-known and fully-loved in pursuit of their God-given purpose and potential. Mission: Global FC uses soccer as a vehicle for transformative impact.

Description

Global FC was founded by first generation refugee, Mariya Goodbrake, and primarily serves first generation immigrant and refugee youth in the northeast neighborhoods of Kansas City, Missouri using soccer as our tool for transformation. We support youth with the tools to overcome obstacles to success by providing resources, opportunities, and relationships towards a brighter future. We accomplish this through our three areas of programming: Soccer, Education and Mentoring.
