My name is Meredith Perry. I am a freshman here at Ball State University. I'm currently studying Speech Pathology with a minor in American Sign Language. Recently, I have gotten involved in two large organizations on campus: Dance Marathon and College Mentors for Kids.
Our organization pairs local elementary students with college students in a one-to-one ratio. College Mentors for Kids provides college student mentors to serve as positive role models for these kids. The little buddies are able to grasp a better vision for their futures. We show kids that college is an option for after high school along with other alternatives, because college isn't for everyone. Here at Ball State we believe that being a mentor can change lives. I am looking forward to being a mentor this year and getting to know more about my little buddy
Please consider making a donation to help me reach my fundraising goal of $150. Your contribution will allow us to continue this program here at Ball State! Let's make an impact on these kids who need it!
