Right now, we have:
• A 6th grade boy waiting
• A 7th grade boy waiting
• An 8th grade boy waiting
Each one is hoping to be matched with a positive male role model.
Just 30 minutes once a week during school hours over your lunch break or maybe right after dropping students off at school or anytime between 8am-3pm on campus can change the trajectory of a student’s life.
You don’t need to be perfect.
You just need to show up.
By mentoring, you’re not only investing in one student — you’re strengthening our entire Jefferson West community.
If you’re willing to give 30 minutes a week and make a lasting impact, message us today to learn more.
📩 Send us a message to get started.
❤️ Please share — someone you know may be exactly who one of these students is waiting for.
🕵️♂️Watch out for more details that will be posting soon of our JW Male Students in waiting. You will learn about their interests, and may find you also have a lot in common with these students. Become a Mentor that gets excited and has fun pouring into their interests in a positive way, creating big impacts in one students life.
