Ignite Mentoring

Logo for Ignite Mentoring

All young people should feel empowered to reach their full potential. Students from lower socioeconomic backgrounds often do not have access to as many opportunities that can develop their self-confidence and an understanding of their potential. The purpose of our small-group mentoring program is to improve self-confidence in students by fostering an environment in which they feel valued, capable and heard. Our organisation is a student-run NFP, running 9 week programs throughout the year in 6 partner schools across Perth which aim to: - Improve student self-esteem through a positive mentor-mentee relationship. - Promote a growth mindset by providing a supportive environment in which students are challenged to venture beyond their comfort zone. - Provide an opportunity for students to practice and be commended on soft skills such as communication and teamwork. - Broaden and improve students’ understandings of available future pathways.
