You can change a life-one relationship at a time For over two decades, Kids Hope USA has provided a reliable, caring, one-on-one relationship that fills a void in a student's life.
THE NEED - According to community reports across the U.S., nearly 20 million kids are considered at-risk. That is nearly half of every elementary classroom of 30 students. The statistics are staggering!
THE OPPORTUNITY - A one-on-one mentoring relationship can change the trajectory of a child's life. Kids Hope USA empowers church-school partnerships to equip people like you to make a difference in the lives of children in your community!
MAKING AN IMPACT-ONE CHILD AT A TIME! - Through a Kids Hope USA mentoring program, elementary students meet once a week for less than an hour with a mentor - a reliable adult who is just there for them. This one-on-one attention can make a world of difference for a student needing the support of another caring and consistent adult.
Allen Park Presbyterian Church is in partnership with Arno Elementary School in Allen Park. Mentors are constantly needed to meet the demand of students that need a caring adult to be their mentor. Find out how a small weekly commitment -- less than an hour -- can provide so much for a child. We are currently seeking mentors and prayers partners for the 2023-24 school year. Training is provided. Men or women welcome. Must be over 16 years old.
