Do you want to make a difference in a young person's life? 1 in 10 young people are disengaged with school and 1 in 4 are unhappy with their lives. At Raise we know that a mentor can change the course of a young person’s life, helping teenagers to build resilience and feel more hopeful for the future. We recruit and train volunteers from the community to become youth mentors, before matching them with a teenager at a local public high school.
