Are you ready to make a difference in our community?

Please join us at Mentoring Orientation Thursday, Sept 17 at 11am.
It is held at St. Barnabas Episcopal Church Fellowship Hall. RSVP to your coordinator or email Lori at [email protected].

Being a mentor will have a huge impact on the student, his family and friends and our community! 
 The time and effort you put into your student can have astronomical effects on many many people as your student grows up, has a family and in turn will be a better spouse, parent, friend, etc! Mentoring is important!

Become a mentor!

“A mentor is someone who allows you to see the hope inside yourself.” 
— Oprah Winfrey
The pandemic has been really hard on everyone and student mental health issues are more common and more severe than ever. Having a trusted adult to talk to and get support from is one thing that we can do to make a difference.
