What is a mentor? • Someone who listens • A helper • Someone who cares • A cheerleader • Fun • A friend
Thank you to all of our mentors who are making a difference in the life of a child……
“KIDS HOPE USA has been great for my son. Tim really loves it. He really loves Mr. Steve. On Tuesdays, he jumps out of bed, exclaiming, ‘It’s my KIDS HOPE day!’ Needless to say, he really looks forward to it!” A KIDS HOPE USA Mom
Miss Sarah received an unexpected Halloween card from Samuel, her KIDS HOPE USA child. In it, the first grader thanked Miss Sarah for everything she has done for him."I don't have a favorite candy," Samuel wrote. "But the candy for me is you."
“These mentors take their time, money and energy to invest in our kids. Your investment is paying off. For some of these kids, that is the hour that they look forward to all week!” Mrs. G. Third Grade Teacher
When he got ready to leave after his second session with Dominick, Blake noticed that Dominick was working with his fingers. The second grader looked up and said, “Tuesday. It’s just seven more days until you come again!”
Will you be a mentor? • Can you listen? • Can you help? • Can you care? • Can you encourage? • Can you have fun? • Can you be a friend
Today more than ever, kids need hope. Will you be the one to bring them hope? Will you be the one to make a difference?
