It is the goal of UrbanPromise to provide a mentor for every child and teen in our program during the school year.
Mentoring involves:
- Meeting one hour per week with a child or teen
- Encouraging the child to reach their potential in academics and life skills.
- Attending a two-hour training session
- Commitment to the end of the school year
Remember: Mentoring not only helps the child you mentor, but it gives you a great experience. Volunteering as a mentor requires a commitment of time and energy, but it is a fun and enjoyable way to spend your time, with the added benefit of helping others.
