Female Mentors Needed

September 1st, 2009
We are looking to expand the number of girls we serve in Mt. Vernon and need female mentors who can meet with the girls after school on Tuesdays from 2:30 to 4:30pm.  We are hoping to match over 40 girls with positive student and adult role models.  Won’t you consider being a mentor? Applications will be accepted starting Friday, August 28th, 2009.  Please note: All mentors must be fingerprinted unless you are a current employee of the Mt. Vernon School District.  Mentoring will begin in October of 2009. Mentor training night is schedule for Monday, September 14th, 2009 at 7:30-9:00p.m.  For more information please contact Pamela Minyard at pamela@giolai.org.
