    Description

    Be THAT Person! Be a Mentor!

    Most of us can reflect back on our lives and remember "That Person." The one who celebrated our successes and picked us up when we were down. The one who pointed us in the right direction and believed in us when we didn't believe in ourselves. There are over 180,000 youth in Maricopa County who are still waiting for "That Person." Could "That Person" be you?

    For the youth in our community who face adversity, having a stable, nurturing, and caring adult in their life can lead them on a path to accomplish their goals. Mentors expand possibilities and help broaden horizons for youth. If you want to be a changemaker in a young person's life, now is the time!

    New Pathways for Youth is actively recruiting adults to be matched 1-1 with Phoenix area youth who have experienced extreme poverty and adversity. Screen and train virtually now and match in person in APRIL!

    To learn more about NPFY and how you can make a difference, attend one of our weekly Virtual Mentor Introduction sessions before March 20th to match in April! You can see all dates and RSVP here: https://npfy.as.me/Mentor-Intro
