Interested in Mentoring?

Have you ever thought about becoming a Mentor for a Broward County student?

Here's your opportunity!!!!

Broward County's Youth Mentoring Program is looking for Mentors to pair up with a youth to meet for one hour once a week throughout the school year. Everyone benefits from mentoring relationships. Mentors will be recognized for their commitment to education, they will achieve a sense of satisfaction for making a positive difference in the world, and they will develop effective listening and problem solving skills as well as become a role model to a child.

If you're interested in becoming a mentor, click here to check out the Youth Mentoring Website
