Do you have what it takes to change the life of a child? If so, now’s your chance.

Do you have what it takes to change the life of a child? If so, now’s your chance because it’s mentoring month. We talk to Paula Gavin – the chief services officer in charge of the new initiative, and Bianca Gottesman and Jade Nieves - a mentor-mentee duo from the organization i-Mentor - which builds mentoring relationships that empower first-generation students in low-income communities.
