Does it cost a lot of money to be a Mentor? No. The emphasis is on spending quality time together not on entertainment. The simplest activities are often the most fun. It is important to enjoy activities that build your friendship and provide opportunities for learning and having fun. The greatest gift you have to give is yourself and your time. We also have great community support for Mentoring and once you are a mentor, we can provide you with a list of local businesses that provide very deep discounts to the mentor/mentee pair – further lifting any financial burden from the new mentor’s shoulders. Once I become a mentor how do I begin contact with my mentee? What happens if I run into a problem with my mentee? How often can I visit my mentee? What does Mentoring mean to a child? What if my mentee is not bonding with me? Can one hour a week really make an impact?
