iMentor partners with public high schools to match each student with a college-educated mentor for three to four years.
How does it work?
We partner with high schools in low-income communities, where a majority of students will be first-generation college students and match every student in a school with a college-educated mentor, who commits a minimum of three years to a single student. Mentoring pairs have the option to continue their relationship through college completion.
