Gorge Youth Mentoring Gets You Moving

Gorge Youth Mentoring (G.Y.M.)
Gorge Youth Mentoring matches youth ages 6-21 with caring adult volunteers to support them in their interests and needs. Volunteer mentors are screened and interviewed by G.Y.M. staff before being paired with youth based on similarities and compatibility. Once matched, program participants meet twice a month in a one-on-one setting for a minimum of one year, planning their own activities together.

Mentoring Helps Youth Succeed!
Children and teens who participate in one-on-one mentoring benefit from:

• Increased self-esteem and social skills
• Better school attendance and performance
• Reduced substance abuse and delinquency

Sponsor a youth and their mentor so they can join in the fun!
