    Make a Difference: Become a Mentoring Program Support Volunteer!

    Are you ready to change lives, inspire young minds, and encourage brighter futures? As a Mentoring Program Support Volunteer for StandUp for Kids, you'll play a vital role in supporting our mentoring program at local schools for homeless and at-risk youth, working alongside the Atlanta Mentoring Coordinator in high schools in Fulton County. Your commitment helps us create a welcoming and supportive environment where youth feel seen, valued, and empowered.

    What You'll Do:

    • Greet and sign in students and mentors as they arrive, setting a positive tone for each session.
    • Provide positive engagement and supervision for students, ensuring a safe and fun atmosphere while they await their mentors.
    • Assist with the setup and cleanup of the mentoring space, helping to create an organized and inviting environment.
    • Help foster a safe, inclusive, and welcoming atmosphere where every young person feels comfortable and supported.
    • Support the Mentoring Coordinator in facilitating smooth and effective mentoring sessions.

    Who We're Looking For:

    • Someone friendly, dependable, and genuinely enjoys working with youth.
    • An individual comfortable in a school environment. Former teachers, youth leaders, room moms or dads, camp counselors.
    • A volunteer who can commit to volunteering twice a month during mentoring hours.
    • Someone open to learning and collaborating with the StandUp for Kids team.

    Your presence is crucial in creating consistency and connection for youth participating in our mentoring program, especially for those who may lack stable adult support in their lives. You'll be an integral part of a team actively working to break the cycle of youth homelessness and build brighter futures through meaningful relationships. Come change a life today!
