Mentors
Are you looking for a rewarding opportunity to help youth in the Cedar Valley? The Job Foundation is a Financial Stewardship Mentoring Program that equips K – 12 students and their families for economic advancement. We have 60 kids in our program waiting to be matched with a mentor....is it you?!
We are looking for volunteers who are passionate about building relationships that nurture education so that children can learn tools and skills for financial freedom and success. Our vision is "All people achieving financial success". The minimum requirement is only 4 hours per month.
The main goal in mentoring is to build a positive, healthy, connection that encourages and develops higher self-esteem in children which can help them achieve success in many ways. Mentors develop a unique bond and encourage young lives.
For the benefit of students (and volunteers), all The Job Foundation mentors undergo an initial screening, orientation and training, and then receive ongoing volunteer training. We ask for an 12-month commitment for Mentors as we recognize the need for consistency and trust for children and families. There will also be a required DMV check and a background check. The ability to provide transportation is a requirement. There are also local activities and discounts provided to the matches for fun activities in the area!
