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

I enjoy volunteering because I get to spend time with my buddy family each week and participate in fun activities together with other mentors and buddies. This program helps me to give back to my community, and I'm learning important leadership skills that are so beneficial as a future educator. 

This year will be my last year with College Mentors for Kids. I've been with this program for three years and can easily say this has been the most rewarding experience I've done in college. This year will also be my second year of serving as a general manager for second grade. I'm so thankful for the all the experiences College Mentors for Kids have given me, and I'm so excited to have a great last year! 

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 powering of mentoring.
