Your donation allows us to carefully select volunteers and match them appropriately with children. It will also help us ensure proper follow-up, strengthen mentoring relationships and, hopefully, make them last until the child graduates from high school.

Studies show that our mentoring services help youth stay in school, which can reduce poverty and unemployment in the long term. Mentoring helps youth avoid risky behavior such as bullying, which contributes to increase safety both in schools and neighborhoods. In addition, the experience of mentoring itself helps youth understand the importance of helping others, which allows them to grow up to become more civic-minded adults.
