Mentoring with HEART

We'd like to match a mentor for your  6-14 year old son or daughter at school or in the community. For many young people the Mentoring program may be the best opportunity to receive the support they need to succeed in school and life. The mentor and student will develop  special relationship and set goals that not only encourage the student, but also allows then to grow personally and professionally. At time the child will enjoy having another positive role model in their life during the school year.
