STARTING THE SCHOOL YEAR WITH LESSONS IN CHARACTER
VETERAN MENTORS ARE INSPIRING YOUTH NATIONWIDE
This summer, TMF Veteran Mentors are providing a day of mentorship to thousands of youth nationwide through Back to School Character Days. These events—taking place in over 70 communities across the country—equip our youth with character education that will help them as they start the school year and for years to come. With every $30 gift, you can sponsor a day of mentorship with a Veteran Mentor for one student.
1 in 3 youth report they do not have a positive mentor in their life
95.4% of youth who connect with Veteran Mentors report they are more motivated to help others because of TMF
CONNECTING YOUTH WITH POSITIVE ROLE MODELS
Back to School Character Days exemplify the ripple effect of TMF’s youth mentoring program. When Veteran Mentors demonstrate their commitment to youth by providing character education to kick off the school year, those students are then more equipped to see how leading with character can make a difference at their school and in their community. Together, we can help our Veteran Mentors open a door for our nation’s youth to see the power of character in action.
