Mentor Richland County needs your help
Millions of children in the United States face adversity. Children who have positive role models are more likely to succeed than those who do not. Mentor Richland County one-to-one mentoring services are proven to help children overcome adversity and beat the odds.
Being a mentor is one of the most enjoyable things you’ll ever do. Not to mention, one of the most fulfilling. You have the opportunity to help shape a child’s future for the better by empowering them to achieve their highest potential. And the best part is, it’s actually a lot of fun. You and your child can share the kinds of activities you already like to do.
Such as: playing board games, shooting hoops, making arts & crafts, working on school work, just being a friend, and giving some advice and inspiration.
Volunteering just one hour each week with a child can start something amazing. So why not apply to be a mentor today? There are kids out there ready to get started. Are you?
You can help children have higher aspirations, greater confidence and educational success. Together, we can create brighter futures for our youth. Call our office at 392-3863 today.
