Do you remember that special person who changed your life? A mentor, who saw something in you, even when you couldn’t see it in yourself? Maybe it was a teacher who stayed after school to help you with math, or a friend who taught you to ride your first bike. Those moments might have seemed small then, but they shaped who you are today.❤️ There are young people out there waiting for those same life-changing moments. A gift to MENTOR can start that ripple effect and help us create more of these beautiful connections, experiences, and new beginnings for young people across the country. 👉Make your impact today, donate now: https://bit.ly/3T7DXJa #MentoringAmplifies
