Youth Mentoring Built on Trust and Dependability
We are a community-focused mentoring program serving youth ages 9 to 18 in the Bradford, Vermont area.
A Mentoring Experience that Benefits Everyone
Our mentors foster meaningful, long-lasting connections that nurture personal growth, academic success, and community involvement.
Mentees are matched with dependable role models that help them develop confidence and self-esteem, improve academic experience, connect with their local community, develop decision making and leadership skills, and much more.
Working families get peace of mind knowing their children are with community members they can trust, and also get some much needed time for themselves.
Our community becomes stronger as we work together and guide our next generation of community leaders that will shape our future in Vermont for years to come.
