Since its founding, there has been a more than 10x increase in young people in structured mentoring relationships, from hundreds of thousands to millions.
By supporting, creating, and elevating research and opportunities, MENTOR is the primary resource and expert for the youth mentoring field, representing a movement that meets young people everywhere they are – from schools, to workplaces, and beyond.
MENTOR is a member of the Social Impact 100 (S&I 100 Index) and has a 4-star rating from Charity Navigator, the largest and most-utilized evaluator of charities in the United States.
With Affiliates across the country and a National office in Boston, Massachusetts, MENTOR's impact is wide-reaching.
In 2021, MENTOR received a portion of the $2.7 billion that philanthropist MacKenzie Scott gifted “286 Teams Empowering Voices the World Needs to Hear.” MENTOR co-founders Geoff Boisi and Ray Chambers each received the Lewis Hine Distinguished Service Award from the National Child Labor Committee (NCLC) for a lifetime of outstanding service to children.
