Dates Volunteer is Needed:
Description of the Volunteer Opportunity:
Building Futures & Foundations Mentoring Project is an innovative program where committed and well-trained volunteers are matched with young people, ages 14-21, who have either aged out of foster care or are at-risk of doing so. Many of these young people want an adult in their lives who they can rely on for guidance. By supporting our young people in a long-term mentoring relationship they gain stability, confidence and the comfort of knowing someone cares.
Who Will Be Impacted Through This Project:
The youth in our program were taken into foster care and never reunified with family. At age 18 they leave the system without the experiences and opportunities necessary to become successful adults.
Is This an Ongoing Opportunity?:
