As you may know, the Morehouse College Alumni Association has launched a mentoring partnership with the Boys and Girls Clubs of America in the Summer of 2013. (Read more about this partnership.)
In November we launched the first mentoring pilot program in Atlanta, and it went exceptionally well. January is National Mentoring Month, and we are celebrating by recruiting mentors for the mentoring pilot program in Atlanta. We also challenge alumni nationwide to consider mentoring wherever they may be.
The impact of mentoring can never be overstated.
