I came into contact With Minds Mater NYC through a college friend. She was a mentee of the program in the early 90's and came back to volunteer as a mentor. She invited me to a fundraiser and I was so impressed by this organization that I became a mentor the following year!
I looked forward to spending my Saturdays with my group and enjoyed being a mentor. There was nothing better than bonding with my mentee and watching a him/her grow every year, until finally they went off to college. Watching the impact that this organization had in transforming the lives and families of resource-poor students made me want to do more to help the organization, so I joined the Board. Three years later I'm still here watching the organization grow and expand programming to better serve our students and happy to be part of that process.
