Ways to help

Virtual Mentoring

Students need mentors now more than ever. COVID-19 shut down schools this past spring and is forcing significant changes to the upcoming schoolyear. Students need support from caring mentors who can help them navigate these unprecedented challenges. We have modified our programmatic model so that we can continue engaging our students through safe, fun, and impactful virtual mentoring. Mentors are trained and provided staff support at every session. Each virtual mentoring session is 30-45 minutes long. Participating schools are in Detroit, Harper Woods, Southfield, Pontiac, Warren, and Sterling Heights. Join our 2020-21 schoolyear virtual mentoring team!.
