We believe that the experiences you have had and the wisdom you have gained is the perfect place to start as a mentor! Just as you are right now. 

We would like to bust the myth that we hear so often “I don’t have much to offer to students, especially those different from me!” 

Or, how about this one: “I just don’t have the time to invest deeply in the life of a student”.

We know it can seem challenging to give up one lunch hour a week, or 45 minutes mid morning or in the afternoon. But we invite you to try it and experience what hundreds of mentors have found on this path before you…

Simply being consistency and compassionately present and available to a student makes an incredibly, systemically profound impact.

We work closely with one of our community partners, Communities In Schools of Richmond, to find a school and a time that work best for you and get your paperwork, orientation and background check ready to go.

Make our public schools equitable…

Let’s do this!
