A BIG Thank You to our Mentors
The essence of the MRC mentoring program is rooted in the most fundamental human relationship: a caring interaction between two people, More than just a single person is touched. The mentor benefits by learning more about the challenges facing youth today, schools benefit as youth improve their chances of school success, and entire communities benefit when young adults succeed in their jobs, their relationships, and give back by becoming mentors themselves and community leaders.
No one makes in in America without some kind of mentor. Whenever successful people look back, they cite those older adults who influenced their development, even if they knew each other for only a short time. For the youth in our program facing steep odds against success, having mentors is not only helpful by essential. They can’t make it all by themselves. We salute all of our volunteer mentors. Laugh, smile, and have fun. It’s that easy to be a MENTOR!!!
We are currently seeking volunteer mentors to meet with a child one hour per week at RCES and Full Armor Christian Academy. Call or office at 392-3863 for more information.

Seeking Volunteers
We are still needing volunteer mentors for our school-based mentoring program. We currently serve youth grades K-7 in three schools in Richland County. One hour per week can make all the difference in a child’s life.
If you are available 1 hour a week during the school year, contact the MRC office @ 392-3863
