The Friends Program

A Great Start for the School Year!

With the help of many generous friends in the community, the Youth Mentoring team is distributing over 60 backpacks stuffed with supplies to help kids in our program and their siblings start the school year strong.  "We are deeply grateful for the support of our donors to create resources for our mentees so that they can get the most out of their relationship with their volunteer mentors.  The kids get to start the school year with the essential tools that they need to learn and grow" said Program Manager, Kyle Cannon. 

Thanks especially to the Hanover High School Football Team and to local businesses: Mason & Rich: McLane Middleton; Sanborn, Head and Associates; Hearts for Kindness; and Leone, McDonnel and Roberts for their generous support!
