The Problem: Many people aged 10 to 17 face emotional issues and limited opportunities for personal growth, reducing their potential and separating them from their communities and prospects.
The Solution: Launched in May 2022, the Choices Mentoring Initiative addresses the need for holistic mentorship by offering a structured curriculum in social-emotional learning, community engagement, and diverse experiences. The program provides college tours, recreational activities, and STEM education to equip youths with life skills, build confidence, and expand their horizons.
The Barriers That Youth Mentoring Programs Face: Despite its success and growing youth interest, the program faces a significant resource gap. It needs funds to expand activities, recruit and train mentors, and maintain its headquarters. Without these resources, it cannot fully achieve its mission of empowerment and support.
Supporters and Donors Are, The Heroes: Your support can bridge this gap and transform lives. By donating, you help the Choices Mentoring Initiative expand its reach, improve programming, and train mentors, directly impacting young people’s futures and helping them become tomorrow's leaders.
What Supporters Will Receive: Donations of $5,000 or more will earn Gold Donor recognition on our website, $2,500 donations will be listed as Silver Donors, and $1,500 donations will be acknowledged as Bronze Donors. Contributions under $1,500 will be recognized as valued Choices Donors. Your support will be celebrated and make a significant impact.
In gratitude for your support, you'll gain the satisfaction of making a real impact on Berkshire County youth, be recognized on our website and social media, and have access to special events. Donors will also receive updates on milestones and personal stories from those affected by your contribution. Join us in making a difference—support the Choices Mentoring Initiative today and inspire the next generation.
