• Mentoring Program - ongoing for 15 years, it pairs businesspeople and high school students with elementary school children - one of our most successful and impactive activities, it makes a huge difference in the lives of these students and is presently in danger of being terminated after the 2009 school year - we desperately need funds to allow this to continue - please click below to help us !
