Join the Team. Be a Mentor.

Mentoring matters because students matter. Being a mentor is a great opportunity for you to literally make an impact on today’s kids and the future as well.

As a school-based or post-secondary mentor, you have the opportunity to inspire students to identify their unique gifts and talents while providing them with a sense of hope.

Now more than ever, our students need an additional positive and caring adult in their life – like you.

Time Well Spent

Mentors and mentees connect weekly for 30–60 minutes during the school day. Commit to at least three years and support a student from 3rd grade through high school or post-secondary graduation.

The biggest problem is we have about one third more kids signed up who want a mentor than we have mentors.
