Bells and Beaus Mentor Program matches our Level II completed students with our Level I younger students, in one-on-one relationships for a period of three months. Through these relationships, as well as recreational's and group activities, mentors provide friendship, support, and guidance to local youth. Mentors and their mentees meet approximately four hours a month during our meetings.
The outcome of participation in the program varies. In general, mentors make a big difference in younger people’s lives. Mentors can encourage their mentee’s self-confidence and self-esteem. They can also help them plan for the future and expose them to higher education opportunities. Mentors also benefit from their mentee's. They learn how to be reliable and conscientious of others, and are exposed to other cultures and lifestyles. Our Mentor Program is designed to encourage the concept of "giving back" to the community, society and the world: in this case, The Bells and Beaus Program. It introduces concepts of stewardship, which works in tandem with the leadership part of the program.
