    Description

    FAME Mentoring Program | Tampa Bay Academy of Hope

    Be Someone Who Matters to Someone Who Matters!

    Who mentored you? Now it’s your turn to pass it on.

    Right now, youth in your community are waiting for someone to believe in them. That someone could be you.

    The FAME Program at Tampa Bay Academy of Hope is looking for compassionate adults in the Lakeland/Polk County area to mentor youth ages 10 to 17—just 1 hour a week. That hour could change a life.

    What We Provide:

    ✔️ Free mentor training

    ✔️ Ongoing support & coaching

    ✔️ Fun monthly activities with your mentee

    ✔️ A chance to impact a young person’s future

    What We Ask:

    🌟 A 12-month commitment (1 hour a week)

    🌟 A willingness to listen, support, and show up

    🌟 A heart for making a difference

    This is more than volunteering. This is legacy work.

    📝 Sign up today and help us match every youth with the mentor they deserve:
