    Description

    Support under-resourced youth in getting a college degree!

    Join us in supporting low-income, first-generation college students! Operation Jump Start exists to help students get in, stay in, and graduate from college.

    We'd love to have you as a mentor for our bright and inspiring youth. You will provide guidance, support, and fun outings to a young student. You have the potential to develop a lifelong connection and friendship - and this happened in our program many, many times!

    This opportunity completely works around your schedule. As long as you are committed to being there for your student and have a handful of hours to spare each month, this is for you. No rigid schedules!

    Reach out directly to our Community Outreach Manager at rebecca@operationjumpstart.org with any questions.

    Get a jump start on getting involved! Apply at https://operationjumpstart.org/volunteer-application/
