tnAchieves still needs more than 3,200 volunteer mentors to support the TN Promise Class of 2023! The deadline to apply to be a tnAchieves mentor is October 21, 2022.
tnAchieves mentors play a critical role in helping high school seniors become college ready and pursue their postsecondary dreams. In 2023, tnAchieves is reinventing its mentor program to confront enrollment challenges head-on! Mentors will meet their students in person and will have more time than ever before to connect with their group.
tnAchieves mentors commit one hour per month to serve as a task manager, resource and encourager for local high school seniors. Mentoring takes just one hour per month, but makes a significant difference in a student’s ability to realize their full potential! All mentors receive a training and handbook guide to the program. Go to the tnAchieves at the following link: https://tnachieves.org/mentors?mc_cid=19a4ab2af8&mc_eid=aaa9409c8a to learn more and apply!
