Posted

TeamMates Mentoring Program’s coordinators and staff are saying thank you to mentors for simply being there for students in Wayne.

January has been designated as National Mentoring Month. Nationwide, programs are honoring mentors for their service and the impact they’re making on youth.

“We are grateful for every TeamMates mentor,” TeamMates Chief Executive Officer DeMoine Adams said. “Every TeamMates mentor I speak with talks about how mentoring has been an incredibly positive experience for them. I hope more caring adults will join us so they too can experience the positive impact of mentoring.”

The mission of the TeamMates Mentoring Program is to impact the world by inspiring students to reach their full potential through mentoring. TeamMates serves more than 10,000 youth in 180+ communities across Nebraska, Wyoming, Kansas, South Dakota, and Iowa.

Mentors meet with their mentees one-on-one in school, once a week, during the academic year or in the college program once a month.
