Impact
Tomorrow Today!
Research
indicates that many students, who are at risk of dropping out of school
or making other unwise decisions, benefit from a positive adult role
model. It is estimated that 27,000 Broward County students are waiting
for a mentor.
By committing
only one hour each week at a school conveniently located near your
home or workplace, you can be the adult who makes the difference in
the life of a child. As the critical listener and gentle guide, you
can give valuable advice based on your own life experiences.
It’s
easy to get involved and the requirements are simple. You just need
to complete a mentor application and security clearance process and
attend a two-hour training seminar to begin this generous act of giving.
The only requirement is a caring ear, a concern for children, and
the ability to listen in a non-judgmental way.
