My mentor did not try to fix me. She just kept showing up.

A thoughtful start

A good match is more than a name on a list.

We listen to what you, the young person, and their parent or guardian want. Interests, schedules, where you live, and the kind of connection that feels right all matter.

A little help can be a big deal.

Practice a job interview. Tour a college. Work on a first resume. Or just have somebody in your corner after a hard week. Mentoring does not have to cost anything, either.
