The volunteer high school mentor program, SEO that I'm a part of is looking for new mentors for the 2020-21 school year, starting in September!This has been my first year as a volunteer mentor, and I've LOVED it!!HOW DOES IT WORK?- You're paired 1-1 with an 11th grader for the school year, and help them prep for college and the professional world.- Meet 6 times in the Fall and Spring semester (about twice a month). (TBD with the pandemic)- Check-ins via email or text every so often to maintain contact when you don't see your menteeThe scholars are low income students, mostly BIPOC and first-gen. They are the most HARDWORKING folks I've ever seen. (They participate in 720+ academic hours outside of their regular schooling!)No previous mentor or volunteer experience necessary! ALL PROFESSIONALS WELCOME, even people in junior roles (Must have attended college - so you can talk about the process). Creative/tech professionals are strongly encouraged to apply.Learn about the program here: https://lnkd.in/detbMgHHappy to answer any questions!!
