"Being a Mentor" by Susan
Two years ago a friend told me about Communities In Schools and how she became a mentor. She made the experience sound so wonderful that I signed up to be a mentor the following year. Nothing could have prepared me for this experience – it is life-changing. My mentee is one of the most amazing people I have ever met. She is determined, hopeful and unstoppable. For one hour a week, we meet and talk, do activities and inspire each other. I am so proud of her, and what she has and will accomplish. I highly recommend becoming a mentor, make a difference in a child’s life and have a child make an impact in your life – you won’t regret it.

One Child At A Time
At the beginning of the year my mentee was distant and would barely speak to me. Since that time, we have become great friends! During the weeks of building my relationship with Jane it was a struggle and at times frustrating. But, it was all worth it! Not only for me but I know especially for her. My goal in the beginning was to become a friend to a little girl who needed one and I’m happy to say together we succeeded.
