Looking for a new adventure? Become a mentor!

The Newton Mentoring Alliance is looking for mentors to join our exploration fitness mentoring program. Mentors help middle school and high school students explore fitness activities including kayaking, rock climbing, hiking, and more.

Mentors will be paired in a one-on-one relationship with a young person in grades 6-12 as part of a year-long program. Mentors commit to meeting with their mentee twice a month for at least six hours per month. Monthly free events will be hosted and organized by The Newton Mentoring Alliance.

Training and ongoing support is provided. No experience necessary, just a sincere desire to help a young person. Because of our suburban location, mentors must have access to a car.

To apply online, fill out our mentor application athttp://newtonmentors.org/application/
