Getting Started: Be a Mentor

Are you interested in influencing the life direction and future success of a young person.  Mentoring makes a difference.  You can change the course of someone’s life by sharing your experience, insights, and talents.

According to Mentoring.org, being a mentor is just as life-changing as having a mentor:

“As you and your mentee begin your relationship; exploring values, interests and goals, you will find yourself making a difference and having a positive effect on their life. What you may also be surprised to see is that you will be learning more about yourself, too. Mentoring doesn’t just affect the young person. Mentoring is a shared opportunity for learning and growth. Many mentors say that the rewards they gain are as substantial as those for their mentees.”
