How do mentors make an impact?
Volunteer Mentors join us in the classroom to support a new hands-on approach to teaching and learning-one that helps underserved students develop the skills, mindsets, and networks to thrive in the 21st-century economy.
They build trusting relationships with students that are critical for their learning and growth, and in turn our students thrive while working with mentors that look like them, seeing themselves in the potential of various career paths.
