Mentorship

THE POWER OF ONE CARING ADULT

Every young person deserves someone in their corner.Someone to look up to. Someone who listens without judgment. Someone who celebrates every win and supports them through every challenge. That’s the power of mentorship.

Our trained staff and volunteers serve as that consistent, caring presence for hundreds of youth across Maury and Giles Counties each day. Whether it’s a listening ear, a word of encouragement, or a helping hand, our mentors are there to guide Club members toward brighter futures.

Right here in our communities, young people are paired with mentors who see their potential, nurture their strengths, and help them discover new opportunities. From building confidence to exploring future careers, these trusted relationships open doors — and minds.

Mentorship works. It helps kids stay on track academically, supports positive mental health, and prepares teens for life after high school. And for many of our Club members, the relationships they build with staff feel safer and more supportive than anywhere else — including school.

Because at BGCSCTN, we don’t just show up for kids. We show them what’s possible. Find a Club near you to learn about youth mentoring services, or volunteer to be a mentor for youth in your community

It was a positive experience, and I’ve never forgotten my time at the Club. I met people at the Club that are still friends to this day.
