Mentoring Services

Sometimes having someone to give your child one on one time makes a big difference to you and to them. Our qualified mentors try to bring smiles and companionship as needed. Mentoring helps because it guarantees a young person there is someone who genuinely cares about them. A child is not alone in dealing with their day to day worries.
The mentors meet weekly and go on various outings together depending on your child’s age and interests. The mentors have gone bowling, to the movies, paintballing, the zoo, the library and other places to provide one on one quality time.
Mentors help keep students in school.
Students who meet regularly with their mentors are 52% less likely than their peers to skip a day of school and 37% less likely to skip a class.
Mentors help with homework and can improve their mentees’ academic skills.
Mentors provide support for students trying new behaviors.
Youth who meet regularly with their mentors are 46% less likely than their peers to start using illegal drugs and 27% less likely to start drinking.
Mentors teach young people how to relate well to all kinds of people and help them strengthen communication skills.
In terms of health and safety, mentoring appears to help prevent substance abuse and reduce some negative youth behaviors.
On the social and emotional development front, taking part in mentoring promotes positive social attitudes and relationships.

Our most recent toydrive was another success. We received over $8,000 in cash donations as well as numerous toy donations. We were able to put smiles on the faces of numerous children and families. We love being able to provide cheers during the holiday season!
