Build a brighter future today. Mentor a young person.

Why we do what we do

We believe it's within our power to do something about the social issues our young people face – so we’ve done just that.  

Since 2008, we've delivered 867 early intervention youth wellbeing programs across Australia. We’ve recruited, screened and trained over 7,200 volunteer mentors. Most importantly, we’ve been able to support almost 11,000 young people.  

We evaluate carefully, listening and valuing the feedback from our young people, so we can continue to improve rigorously and deliver programs that achieve outcomes. We know we’re helping to build a generation of resilient, motivated and confident individuals – the question is will you join us?

Teenage years are tough

50% of all mental health disorders begin by age 14, often with lifelong impact. Adolescence is a complex time with so much change, physical and emotional - at Raise, we can't stop change, but we can help young people cope with it.

Research shows young people who are mentored have lower levels of depression, higher sense of wellbeing, know where to go for support and are more likely to find employment and their future path.
