It's a hard time to be a kid. With all kinds of negative peer pressures, it's tough to navigate without a caring adult to help them through. Many of the kids we serve have added challenges; most of them live in poverty or low-income homes, and more than 80% of them don't have a family history of higher education.
Luckily, College Mentors for Kids provides college student mentors to serve as positive role models for these kids and open their eyes to new opportunities, helping them to create new visions for their futures.
I enjoy being in College Mentors because I love working with the kids and seeing how they come up with ideas or work through problems. I also love getting to know my Little Buddy, and what he or she likes and is intersted in. Getting to see these kids every week is an honor, and I am so happy I get the privilage of doing it.
Please consider making a donation to help me meet my fundraising goal! Your contribution will allow us to continue this program on our campus so that we can make an even greater impact on these kids who need it.
