 Project Mentee

Project Mentee: Summer 2022

We are excited to announce the dates for our Project Mentee program! This summer, we will explore the themes of community issues, mentorship, and project management. This is a great opportunity for any pre-teen (ages 8-12) looking to learn about issues local to their city and develop the skills needed to become leaders in their communities.

Program cost is $100 with scholarships available ->
Request here. 
​

What To Expect
Participants in Project Mentee will be paired up with another pre-teen to work on a community service project of their choosing. The pre-teens will be guided through their service project by two teen mentors from the Teen Leadership Academy. Together, the 4 participants will have five weeks to plan and complete their project. The last week of the program will conclude with a showcase where participants will present their projects.

For questions, contact our Program Manager.
