Mentoring at Memorial and Dooley Elementary 

OUR LOCAL SCHOOLs WANT US

All children need healthy, consistent relationships with adults who are committed to helping them grow, develop, and thrive. Our local public elementary schools have asked us to come alongside parents, teachers, and others to invest in their students through one-on-one mentoring relationships. To love them, as Christ loves us.  

KIDS HOPE USA WILL EQUIP US 

Kids Hope USA is a national organization that equips partner churches like ours to send volunteer mentors into the local school. There, each mentor is matched with one student and commits to being another consistent, supportive, encouraging adult in their life. Just as God shows up in the person of Jesus and loves us unconditionally, mentoring a student one-on-one allows us to share unconditional  love with a child in need of support.

HOW IT WORKS 

As a Kids Hope USA trained mentor, you'll spend 30 minutes each week during the school day with a student—playing games, coloring, reading books, and talking. Don’t worry! While you may complete some basic academic work, the focus of this time together is on building a meaningful relationship. You’ll receive training and be matched with a behind-the-scenes prayer partner who will pray for you and your student. 

GET INVOLVED

We are committed to serving the students, staff, and families at our partner schools. Together, we can make a difference. Contact our church's Kids Hope USA program director Cindy Boatfield, cindyboat17@gmail.com, for mentoring at Memorial or Dooley Elementary.
