At UE's Chapter of College Mentors for Kids, we have one big goal to transform the lives of every kid that we mentor. To reach this goal we connect kids to college students through weekly on-campus activities that inspire growth, confidence, and a passion for learning that leads to brighter futures. Our innovative 501(c)3 organization pairs kids one-on-one with a college mentor at the University of Evansville and engages them in activities where they discover the endless possibilities for their future. These kids, or little buddies, participate in structured group activities that focus on higher education and careers, culture and diversity, and community service. In the end, we hope our little buddies are paving ways to successful futures and our college student mentors are learning the importance of community involvement and leadership.
The University of Evansville Chapter of College Mentors for Kids is currently bettering the future of 24 little buddies from Harper Elementary School.
