Why Donate to College Mentors?

Did you know that 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. We all know that growing up is challenging, but, with a mentor, it’s a little easier. And that’s exactly why I’ve chosen to be volunteer with College Mentors at tOSU!

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

I love volunteering and being a mentor because I get to spend time with my little buddy each week and participate in fun activities together with other mentors and buddies. I also enjoy learning alongside my buddy about careers, culture and diversity, and community service. Not only am I attempting to guide my buddy through life and share my any advice from my experiences with them, but my little buddy helps me grow as a person too. This program helps me to give back to my new Columbus community, and I'm learning important leadership skills in the meantime.

I can't do all of this without your help, though. Please consider making a gift to help me meet my fundraising goal for the 2024-2025 school year! Your contribution will allow us to continue this program on our campus so that we can spread the powering of mentoring.
