Description
The majority of our students are at schools that are ranked in the bottom 10% of schools nationwide, and 1 in
4 high schoolers is college-ready. With a commitment of as little as 1 hour a week you can make a difference in
a youth's life through our Covenant Group small group mentoring at Bresee Foundation.
What a mentoring session will look like: We will have some large group and/or small group ice breakers
followed by discussion with 4-5 high schoolers on peer pressure, school, friends, etc. Journaling and arts & crafts
are included every week. Field trips.
Lessons and discussion questions will be provided.
What: Covenant Group small group mentoring
