MENTORING is a one-to-one relationship between a caring adult and a young person.  A mentor is a wise and trusted friend and guide, a source of encouragement, a positive role model, a developer of talents.  Your goal should be to help a young person succeed.  You do not need special skills to be a mentor, you just need to care and be there!  If you can volunteer one hour a week, you can make the difference in the life of a child.
