WHY THE MENTORING PROJECT (@TMProject) EXISTS:

In the United States alone, there are some 25 million youth growing up fatherless. This is a personal tragedy and a collective epidemic.  Countless statistics tell us that children from fatherless homes are more likely to: drop out of school, become teenage parents, join gangs and experiment with drugs. The fatherless story is not ending well.

We believe this can change...

TMProject President, John Sowers often says, "This generation has been wounded the most in relationships - it is in relationships where the healing must begin." We believe that mentoring is a way to rewrite the fatherless story. Mentors are the 'quiet heroes' of the community investment movement. 

At The Mentoring Project, we inspire, recruit, train, equip, consult and match men and women so that they can become relational community mentors. How can you mentor? Get our Mentor Toolkit or attend a city-wide Rewrite Mentor Training.  Even better, have us come to your city to consult and conduct a community-wide mentor training. Can't mentor right now? Consider sponsoring a mentor. For $25/month - you can help us recruit and train a mentor for an at-risk child. Join us … today!
