Review for Friends for Youth, Inc., Redwood City, CA, USA
Friends for Youth has a model that is proven to make a difference. Mentoring works in many venues, but providing an at risk youth with a positive, caring role model really can influence whether the path chosen is productive and positive. FFY needs mentors, board members and donors, as well as corporate supporters who "get" the model and work to make it happen0.
