WE MENTOR
Each One, Teach One
Dr. Troy Nash was mentored, and now he mentors. The Foundation builds that same chain on purpose: volunteers mentor Academy graduates, and graduates mentor the next cohort.
How Mentoring Works
🧭
Matched With Care
We pair each mentor and graduate based on background, interests, and goals.

A Real Commitment
Mentors guide graduates through job searches, housing decisions, financial choices, and life's challenges.

Trained and Screened
Every mentor completes orientation. Anyone in direct contact with participants passes a background check first.
Apply to MentorThe Mentor Pathway
- Months 1 to 12: the participant completes the Academy, with monthly community sessions for peer support.
- After graduation: a volunteer mentor walks alongside them for 6 to 12 months.
- Year 2 and beyond: the graduate becomes a mentor to a new participant. Each one, teach one.
Where we are:
the mentor network launches with the Academy in 2027, pending funding. Our mentoring target will be set from the first cohort's results after Year 1. A funder can name the Mentor Network ($30,000, 3-year naming).
Your journey is someone's roadmap.
Give a few hours a month, or fund the network that makes the matches.
