What Community Mentors Have to Say
Adelaide & Willa "Being involved in a mentoring relationship with my mentee has been a great privilege for me. We build on each other’s ideas and I try to encourage her healthy and intelligent curiosity about the world.” - Adelaide, mentor since 2017 Karl & Jack
"The roar of the fire, the boiling of the sap, the hard work and quiet conversations make for a great time at the sugarhouse with my friend and mentee." - Karl, mentor since 2014 Pam & Harlee
"Spending time with my mentee, and seeing the world through a child’s eyes, makes everything right in the world.” - Pam, mentor since 2015 Ginny & Breona "My mentee and I feel quite lucky to have each other. I enjoy choosing activities that I loved doing with my own children when they were young, and my mentee loves to introduce me to her favorites. I always look forward to our time together." -Ginny, mentor since 2016 Cam & Chase "Mentoring is a great way to make a difference, big and/or small, in a child's life. The amount of time you volunteer is up to you, and there is terrific support from the staff." - Cam Kelly-Kinniburgh, Mentor since 2015 Betty & Natasha "Such fun we had, often low key hanging out, cooking, walking, talking, kayaking. I have so many great memories and a great friend. Mentoring is so fulfilling and makes a difference in at least two lives, with rippling effects beyond." -Betty 2015 Read about their closure meeting here |
