Mentoring makes a difference
It changes young lives and brings a purposeful, rewarding opportunity to yours
We recruit and train everyday people like you to become volunteer mentors working with young people in year 8 and 9 who would benefit most from a mentor. Through the one-to-one time with your mentee, you will see and feel the difference you make! As experts in our field, we’ll train you for success before placing you in one of the most respected youth mentoring programs in the country.
You’ll need 2 hours free, to be at the school for mentoring on the same day and time each week
You’ll need to be able to do this during school terms 2 and 3 and a bit of term 4 (April to November - holidays allowed!)
You’ll make a lifetime of difference to your mentee, equipping them with tools they can use long into the future
And we know this because we do robust evaluation to measure our program outcomes. Year after year we see results that show significant improvements in young people's resilience, sense of school belonging, hope for the future and the ability to ask for help.
They like the program too! 97% of our mentees tell us they enjoyed the program and 94% would recommend it to a friend.
74% of our mentees tell us the program helped them cope with the issues they faced, issues like; depression, bullying, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, self harm and disordered eating.
The stories they tell us, no matter how short and sweet, speak volumes to the impact you'll make.
