As you maybe aware, tnAchieves is actively recruiting local volunteers to serve as mentors for the Class of 2018 TN Promise Students. Targets have been established for each county around the state.
As our state seeks 55% post-secondary attainment by 2025, we must reach students who never thought that college was an option. Our mentors are often the difference makers as students make decisions that affect their futures.
The business community is the key to supplying mentors to students that transition from high school to post secondary.
We are asking for your help or anyone in your organization that would be interested in being a mentor by filing out the application form at https://www.tnachieves.org/mentors/apply.
Also, if you have any questions regarding the mentor program you can contact Greg or Rita at the Livingston-Overton County Chamber of Commerce at 931.823.6421.
The following is the current status for Overton County…Class of 2108 Mentors Needed (34), Mentors Recruited (9), Mentors Still Needed (25), and % Recruited (27%).
Being a mentor is a real joy and takes very little of your time, please consider being a mentor today.
