Volunteer to be a mentor

Help me spread the word about this fantastic program!

via iMentor
You DO have time to be a mentor!

Join over 400 New Yorkers who volunteer with iMentor to make a difference in the lives of young people in New York City!

iMentor provides a flexible and meaningful way to work with high school students from underserved communities in New York City. iMentor matches adult volunteers one-on-one with students based on shared career or personal interests. Mentors and mentees correspond weekly via email, utilizing iMentor’s curriculum and writing prompts. Pairs also meet in person at iMentor-hosted events and collaborate online on projects designed to improve mentees’ reading, writing, research and technology skills.

Volunteers must be at least 21 years old, and must live or work in the New York City metropolitan area. iMentor requires a minimum of a one year commitment to our program. Two, three and four year matches are also available. Mentors’ time commitment averages 4 hours a month, including structured, weekly email exchanges and required face-to-face meetings at iMentor-sponsored events every 6 to 8 weeks (5 meeting per year).

For more information, check out iMentor's web site at www.imentor.org. If you would like to apply, visit the “Get involved” section of our website to complete an application online.

If you have any questions, please contact Michelle Choi at michelle@imentor.org or 212-461-4330 x21.
