Making Mentoring Meaningful

*Do you want to make a difference in someone's life?  Are you willing to
volunteer in order to do so?*

*Making Mentoring Meaningful (MMM),* also known as Mentoring Children of
Prisoners, is a mentoring program that provides youth ages 4-18 years
old, who have an incarcerated parent, the opportunity to be matched
one-on-one with a volunteer mentor for academic and recreational support.

Commitment: Two (2) outings per month for at least one year.  Activities are
planned around mentor/mentee schedule.  Activity ideas include: going to the
park, zoo, making friendship bracelets together, playing sports, learning a
new magic trick, skating, going to a museum, doing your homework together,
practicing to become the next American Idol together, or anything that you
both are interested in doing.

*Our next mentor training on Saturday, February 12th from 9am-12:30pm at our
office: 3947 S. Michigan Avenue, Chicago, IL 60653. Please let me know if
you can make it. *

Please feel free to contact Dionis Harvey and request an application to
