From Greg

Hi everyone,


As most of you know, I started working at iMentor in early November 2007. Since that time I've attended several mentor-mentee events where I witnessed the magic that is a mentoring relationship. Words really don't do it justice. You have to see the smiles on their faces to truly understand what having a mentor means to both the student and the mentor.


iMentor targets the most under-served communities in NYC and develops partnerships with schools and after-school programs serving high-school-aged youth. Through these partnerships, the iMentor program staff facilitates 800 mentoring relationships during the school year.


I really wish that iMentor was a program in my high school because I didn't have many role models growing up. I would, however, like to thank my own mentor, Monte Givhan, for guiding me to New York and setting me on my current career path.

 

By contributing to iMentor you are changing people's lives because the impact of having a mentor will still be felt long after these students graduate from high school, and even after college. So please click the button below and give what you can afford. I know times are tough, but, trust me, it will be money well spent.

. . .  And check out the video at the bottom of this page. It's really good!

About iMentor

5,000 matches since 1999 in NYC / 800 matches this year

and we are just getting started.......

iMentor's mission is to improve the lives of young people from underserved communities in  New York City through innovative, technology-based approaches to youth mentoring and education. iMentor creates and supports one-to-one mentoring relationships between high school-aged youth (mentees) and caring adult mentors. Every mentor-mentee pair cultivates their relationship using iMentor's pioneering combination of weekly email correspondence and regular in person meetings.

Capitalizing on email and emerging technologies, iMentor adds structure and flexibility to its mentoring relationships. iMentor's mentoring model proves that:

  • Even the busiest most successful New Yorkers have time to be quality mentors - 84% of our mentors have never served as a mentor before iMentor
  • Formal mentoring programs can reach and flourish in NYC's most isolated, low-income, and underserved communities - 98% of our mentees have never had a mentor before iMentor

iMentor is reinventing possibilities for youth mentoring, activating a new class of volunteer mentor, and cultivating relationships that change lives.
