Mentoring transforms lives-- research shows that kids with mentors view themselves and their futures more positively than those without mentors. Not only do they view themselves in a more confident light, but they also achieve more positive outcomes in school, the workplace, and their communities. Growing up is challenging, but having a supportive mentor can help. This is why I’ve chosen to volunteer with College Mentors!

College Mentors for Kids connects kids to college students through weekly on-campus activities that inspire growth, confidence, and brighter futures.

I have the best time with my little buddy each week as we participate in fun activities together with other mentors and buddies. I enjoy learning alongside my buddy about careers, culture and diversity, and community service. Not only do we like exploring our world together, but my little buddy helps me grow as a person, too. This program helps me to give back to my community and equips me with important leadership skills along the way.

I can't do all of this without your help, though. Please consider making a gift to help me meet my fundraising goal :) Your contribution goes directly to allow us to continue this program on our campus. Any amount is greatly appreciated!
