The Partners School-Based Mentoring Program places positive adults into schools to provide one-to-one mentoring services to youth who may be facing challenges in their social, academic, and/or personal lives. Youth (mentees) are matched with an adult volunteer (mentor) based on the needs of the mentee and on the schedules, personalities, and interests of both the mentee and mentor. Mentors spend 1 hour per week with their mentee and commit for one academic school year. Partnerships spend time together doing various activities that help them build a relationship with one another including eating lunch together, playing games, shooting hoops, working on an art project, or just hanging out and talking. It's all about the connection and overall support of the youth!
Mentoring matters, and YOU can make a major impact in our community by giving a local youth just one hour/week of your time! Getting involved with Partners is a great opportunity for individuals who desire to work with youth, or want to give back to our community in a meaningful way.
If you would like to be the difference in the life of a youth, please consider becoming a mentor. Visit https://poweredbypartners.org/mentoring/ or reach out to Noah Davidson for volunteer/internship opportunities: ndavidson@poweredbypartners.org.
