Volunteer Opportunity Details:

Often people think to themselves, I'm just one person. I can't make a difference.

WRONG! Mentoring a youth is an amazing opportunity to meaningfully impact two lives at once: yours and theirs.

The youth waiting for mentors simply want someone to talk to and hang out with. They have diverse interests and needs. They have goals, hopes and dreams but need a role model to help them achieve their full potential. You don't have to be perfect to be a mentor. Just be yourself!

Mentors must be at least 18 years old, pass a background check, have reliable transportation, complete an interview and 2 hour training and commit to one year. Mentors must meet weekly with their mentee for at least one hour.

This opportunity is sponsored by: Bethany Christian Services

We need volunteers who are free at these times Weekly This volunteer opportunity is available to the following types of volunteers Adults (26-54) Individual Adults (55+) Young Adults (18-25)
