Hi, friends and family! My name is Tatum Harris and this will be my second year in the College Mentors for Kids program at Virginia Tech. This year, I will be serving as the Vice President of Programming for Margaret Beeks Elementary School! This position allows me to oversee a group of little buddies, their mentors, and support staff to ensure our weekly activity days are full of mentoring and excitement. I am so excited about this new position and cannot wait for a year of fun with this program. Please consider donating to our chapter to ensure this program can continue for years to come!
Why 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.
College Mentors for Kids connects kids to college students through weekly on-campus activities that inspire growth, confidence, and brighter futures.
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 will allow us to continue this program on our campus so that we can spread the power of mentoring.
