My husband and I have been matched with our mentees for over 6 months now and absolutely love this program! The coordinators are amazing and always there for us. If you are looking to donate your time to a wonderful organization please consider this program! The gratification and warmth one receives from touching a child's life does not compare to anything else. The program provides you with the tools needed in order to deal with any situation or dilemma your match may encounter. This program is excellent for all ages!
