I have been involved with the mentoring network since the early 2000's. This program has made such a big difference in so many individual lives. Thank you to every Mentor out in our community that spends their time with this program.

I have been working with the Mentoring Network for over 10 years as an attorney advisor and can't say enough great things about this organization. I hear nothing but great, heart-melting stories about the connections made between mentors and mentees. The passion of the board and its executive director, Donna Shines, shows in everything they do.

One hour a week truly does change a childs life! Working with The Mentoring Network the past few years has afforded me the opportunity to hear many, many stories of kids that have been positively impacted through spending time with their adult mentor. This organization is one of the most efficient organizations that I have been a part of. Over 140 current matches with a staff of 1.5. No doubt that a donor's investment goes a long way with this group.

This is my second school year with my mentee, and it has been such an amazing experience for me. The second my mentee and I met, we instantly bonded. Each week he brings a light to my day, and brings me back to reality. I know being a constant in his life has added to his self esteem and school work, but he brings me just as much joy when I get to spend time with him. -Jamie M.

I have been a board member of The Mentoring Network since 2010 and it has been nothing but a positive experience. I have met many of our mentors and the kids they work with. The results are incredible. One hour a week can make a difference in someones life. Recently (November 2012) I became a mentor for a young man in one of our school districts. I have met with him only twice but already have a connection with him that hopefully grows into a great friendship. The Mentoring Network is truly a game changer for kids that need that little bit extra in life. I hope to be a board member as long as they let me.
