Mentoring with The Challenge Foundation
Descripción
Descripción
Want to make a lifelong impact on a young person's life? If you came up as a first-generation college student, you know what it's like to navigate challenges no one around you really understood, and you have something valuable to offer a student walking that same path today.
The Challenge Foundation is looking for mentors ready for something deeper than a typical short-term mentorship. We match mentors with incoming sixth graders for a journey that lasts all the way through high school graduation. A relationship built around helping a student feel truly seen and heard, year after year.
You won't do this alone. Every mentor gets training up front and an advisor who stays with you throughout the whole journey.
It's a long-term commitment, but a flexible one. You and your student set a monthly schedule that works around both your lives, so staying consistent never means sacrificing everything else.
Are you ready to make a lasting impact on a student in need?

The Challenge Foundation Mentoring Program is a vital part of our support services. Challenge Scholars are paired with a mentor when they enter the program in 6th grade. Mentors partner with the student, their family, and Challenge to provide ongoing support, encouragement, and meaningful experiences through high school graduation and beyond.
The Challenge Foundation believes that young people should be surrounded by as many positive and supportive adults as possible and recognizes mentoring as a fundamental aspect of our scholars' success. Above all, we seek mentors who are dedicated to the growth of the whole person and who are willing to provide the support and attention necessary for scholars to reach their full academic and personal potential for a period of 7 years from sixth grade through high school graduation.
To help students achieve their educational goals, we require mentors to hold a college degree. Challenge Foundation mentors serve as positive role models, forming long-term, trusting relationships with scholars. They emphasize the importance of education and career readiness, provide enrichment opportunities, teach life skills, and offer invaluable guidance.
